runner interference

[rwest]

Its a HTBT. You have to see the entire play and the quality of the throw can be used to determine the result. However, that should not be the only factor or the one of most importance. Also, interference does not require contact. I don't want to get into the situation where we force the catcher to hit the runner in order to make a quality throw. And what is a quality throw? If the 1st baseman has to stretch for it, I'd consider that a bad throw. However, the catcher may have to throw it a little wide in order to avoid the runner. In that case the poor throw was caused by the runner being out of the lane and I have interference.
