interference

Rachel,

That is the opposite interp of what I had been assuming. IOW, I would have made the same call you did.

I wonder how Bennet comes to the conclusion that the ASA interp should be used since NFHS doesn't mention a deflected batted ball. Isn't it still a batted ball? If they make no exception for the deflection, why wouldn't we assume they want it called the same as an ordinary batted ball?

Maybe WMB will come along and offer his expertise on this.
