Interference Pop Foul First Base?
Fed question. I've read about 30 posts trying to find a similar situation but have failed to find one.
Runner on first. First baseman playing in front of base to guard against bunt. Batter swings and pops the ball up. Runner remains in contact with the base (actually trying very hard to keep out of the way while keeping one toe on the base). 1B never looks and backs into the runner. Ball drops foul about two feet behind first base and the runner, uncaught. No intent by runner to interfere.
I had nothing. Agree? Rules references in you have them please.
