I can see how this could turn up into an interference call. And possibly a brawl on the field. If it was my runner I would say something to them and let know they walked a fine line, and took a big chance.
That doesnt answer the question.

Why should an umpire be looking to protect a DMC (dumb move catcher) in a judgement call?
