OK-
You guys are not getting my drift..In situation #1, why are they 'dancing'? Is they ball through? If it is then there is no other call but obstruction because the fielder's opportunity to field the ball is over. Contact is just one criteria for interference, so don't take that to the 'nth' degree..Yes, the fielder has every right to field the ball, however if the runner is just doing her job i.e. trying to avoid her or'dancing'and she does so, without contact, and she doesn't do anything intentional how can you call interference?
