If the batter is "bolted down" and the catcher runs into her tring to may a play at home, don't you have interference.
Sure ya do.

I agree with you about the BR & coach scenerio. I wanted to add something to this though.
If R1 is on 2nd, batter pops up and the ball appears to be coming down directly on top of her on 2b, does she have to vacate the area for the fielder to make the play? Or should she stay put completely on the bag and risk a collision with the fielder? If she leaves the base she will get doubled up easily.
