Interference

[Benchcoach]

Ball was half way up the line when fielded by F2. Call was made by FU.

Batter/Runner was 3-4 steps ahead of ball that was fielded half way up the line.

We still do not know where either foot of the B-R was when the throw was altered which matters only in FED and NCAA.
But strange that this was called by FU/BU unless he knew his PU did not know sheet.

Thank you all for the laughs so far!

If a B/R's illegal position caused the bad throw, then it's INT in FED & NCAA.

And yes, the PU normally makes this call, since he has a broader view, plus doesn't have safe-out responsibility. However, BU can make this call as well.

That does not help. Please go to bed and reread the thread throughly tomorrow
