Well, it's often been said that anyone can call safe/out, fair/foul or ball/strike but it takes an umpire to call interference and obstruction!

Now I understand why!

On the one hand, we have an umpire who calls obstruction when there was obviously no reason to and on the other hand, we have someone who worries where the ball is in order to call obstruction.

Yes, I now agree that you have to be an umpire in order to understand and call interference and obstruction.
