If in the judgement of the umpire, Charles bat hitting the ball was completely by accident then nothing is called.

Can't agree with you there, tibear. Bat hits ball in fair territory, intent is immaterial. Charles is out.

Ball rolls up against bat is different.

Thanks for your responses.

greymule,

If you notice the second part of my answer.

I guess what my intent was, if the ball hits the bat then no call, however, if the bat hits the ball then interference is called. In this instance once interference is called ALL runners return to their TOP base, timing is not a consideration.
