Verbal Interference.
The one I encountered. Runner on 3rd, two outs, batter hits
ball to F1's right, she fields the ball. As F1 is turning to throw
to F3, for what would have been the final out of the inning, the
coach at 3rd [female] hollars the pitchers name. She turned to see
what was happening, realized she had no play, now hurried her throw to
F3 pulling her off bag. BR reaches 1B safetly, runner on 3rd scored.
At least that is what the coach thought, until I called verbal
interference on her. Without her yelling at the F1, F1 would have
easily gotten the out in MHO, and at that point, that is all that
counted.
Her first remark was, "She made a bad thrown!" Yea, Why?
