The exception reads:
If the interference prevents the fielder from catching a routine fly ball, fair or foul, with ordinary effort, the batter is also out.
We had this play in the Western Regional in 2012 and the umpires ruled the runner out and added a strike to the count. This would have been the correct ruling for NFHS, but we were told it was incorrect for ASA.
