well

I guess the rules don't matter to you and well thats they way life goes. But the rule state interferes with a fielder making a play. It is obvious whether the catcher changes his throw because the runner is in the way. There is no guess work, and the call has nothing to do with it being a good throw or not, the call is prior to the result. By running outside the running lane and causing a bad throw or the chances of a bad throw, that is interference. The intent of the rule is to create a THROWING LANE. But closing it off and mking them take another route, the Runner blocked the THROWING LANE. At all other bags there is no rule to deal with therefore there is no interference even when the runner is hit by the THROWN BALL, so if your reasoning is that there's no rule at anyother bage re an a bad lob, why even call interferance on BR when hit by the ball since it also doesn't exist anywhere else???
