Remember, interference is the act of a member of the offense that HINDERS someone's ability to make a play on a runner. If there's no chance in he11 to successfully make a play, then you have no interference. Take this example. R1 on 1B with no outs. The ball's hit to the shortstop (who has a very weak arm), who tags 2B for the force out. B2 is a fast runner and has already crossed 1B. Shortstop throws to 1B, but R1 is in the way and swats the ball down (in a defensive move, as the ball was going towards his head). Would you call interference on that? No, because there's no chance in he11 there could have been a play at 1B - the runner's already there. That's what Mike is getting at. If there's no play that could be made, then you have nothing.

Dave I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views! Screw green, it ain't easy being blue! I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again. |
