Texas - ASU game 3

ANyone watching this?

In the middle of the umpires trying to figure out the possible interference call on the batter. I think he's calling the runner out but they haven't announced it.

R1 stealing, check-swing ball 4 on a full count. Catcher rises to throw to 2nd. Batter walks in front of the catcher throwing to 2nd. Thrown ball goes behind the 2nd baseman into right center field.

PU immediately calls interference on the batter. Runner goes to third. PU then waives off the interference - leaving runners at 1st and 3rd. Garrido talks to PU, who gathers the crew. They talk for a LONG time, then go talk to Garrido, and then to ASU's coach - who is pissed.

They DID rule the runner out. Interesting. Correct I think, but interesting the way it played out.
