[QUOTE=SethPDX;619591]But this is not a case in which we ask ourselves either of those last two questions. This is a rule that is spelled out clearly for us as written, so we call the play as directed by the rule.

You do need to address these questions...
You need to look at R/S 44 section B....
While Not in Contact With a Base. A runner who is hit by a fair batted ball while not in contact with a base should be call out or ruled safe, depending on the interference rule.
(Rule 8, section 7 J & K or rule 8, section 8 D-F.
Again I ask who did the batter / Runner interfere with if there was not a player / players there to field the ball ?
