Situation...

BR hits a dribbler off the plate, catcher comes out as BR is heading toward 1st and there is contact. What, if anything, do you have?

I have read different opinions and interps on this board regarding incidental contact and both players have a right to do what they need to do. Is that the basic philosophy on this situation or is the BR obligated to avoid the fielder making a play?

As long as there is no intentional interference on any one's part, the anything we may have , is Nothing at all.
