Umpire interference or nothing

Umpire interference comes into play in one, and only one, situation --- this is not it.

Or, if you can be talked into it, such as what happenend at TAMU game this year. Very similar sit and out at 2B was changed to no out and return runner to 1B.

Try that again, please.

There are only 2 (two) situations where umpire interference can occur:

• The Plate Umpire interferes with F2's throw to retire a runner.
• The Base Umpire is hit by a batted ball.

All other contact either by the offense, defense or the ball is not umpire interference.

Yeah, I probably should have said 2 situations. Or that it only appears in ONE rule in the rulebook. My bad.
