I concur with the above. What peeves me are the coaches in the younger levels of rec ball who try to use this as a diversion to score a run. Though 1st is occupied with less than two outs, they will yell at the BR to run on a dropped 3K to draw a throw and allow the runner on 3rd to score. I have twice, after explaining the D3K rule to the offending coach, called interference and ruled the runner closest to home out. When they questioned me, I instructed them to look up the interference rule, either retired runner continuing to draw a throw or verbal interference. I've never had a problem convincing them of my ruling. When I had one of the offending teams a week or so after invoking this call, I overheard the head coach tell the assistant, "We've got that guy who knows all those little picky rules, so we've got to be careful."
