R1 gets home before ball, but catcher is blocking. They collide, just as ball arrives. They fall down, ball gets away, R1 on top of catcher. R2 scores.

Do you agree not OBS, because R1 scored standing without hindrance before the collision?

How would you decide on interference by R1 or not?

1) What rule set? NFHS, NCAA, or ASA?

2) When you say R1 "gets home before the ball" do you mean that R1 touched HP?
