Jumping over a batted ball

[tzme415]

Speaking ASA SP -
When is a runner jumping over a batted ball considered interference? Does having time to react any differently come into the decision? The other thing is that in Adult Men's SP, most of the infielders stand where they are barely in the infield.

I see runners jumping over the ball alot in Adult SP and am wondering if I should be calling interference more often. I have only called it once and that was when a player appeared to me to actually wait for the ball on a slow hit to time his jump so the fielder couldn't charge the ball.
