I want your call on this.

[David B]

I don't think anyone is saying BU cannot make the call.

However, according to NF mechanics, PU has routine flyball in the infield, thus he is covering the catch, and PU also has fair/foul so he is covering fair/foul.

BU is moving in case of a possible play toward second or a throw to first if the ball is dropped.

He may see and call the play as interference; however, since PU is covering the play, PU should have the call.

Thanks
David

For those of you that say this is the PU's call all the way, give me a NF reference that says that. Because according to the NF any umpire can call interference or obstruction that sees it. And that is specificially on page 27, under #10. So I have to disagree that the BU cannot make that call.
