I believe either would be appropriate in this context. I've always found "all y'all" to be a bit much on the palate, as it is a bit redundantly repetitive.

Of course, what do I know? I'm originally from Ohio!

I'm originally from Ohio, too, but I believe that JM is right: 'Y'all' is singular, and 'All y'all' is plural.

"'Y'all' is singular, and 'All y'all' is plural"

Wait a minute, I used to know a women from up North that said "you can" and one from down south y'all can.

Hmmmmmm!!!! Sounds plural to me.

Ina discussion at our Evans clinic Evans told me that batter's interference can even be visual.

This certainly flies in the face of what you are posting.

Been out of town, missed good discussion.

Bottom line is ... when F2's initial throw retires a runner, the interference is disregarded. This includes an aborted attempt on an initial try and a subsequent throw to another base.

I know that FED and NCAA penalize where the initial attempt, or try, failed.

I can only share what was taught, tested and drilled into our mushy heads.

Initially, in an earlier post, I didn't describe very well what I was thinking. If the interference prohibits a throw being made, you can enforce the interference penalty, unless a subsequent throw, hence initial, retires a runner.
