A play (again, Rule 1), is an attempt to retire a runner.

Yet, the defender who was crashed into did not have the ball.

Where was the play that was interfered with? If there was no play, how could there be interference?

Does "about to receive" come back? Do we have a broader definition of interference (no play necessary)?
