Contact for Interference

I was told the reason that the rule was put in effect, was because that all umpires
interpret interference differently, so they added the "must be contact"
phrase to insure it was called the same by all umpires.

What's next?

Since all umpires interpret the strike zone differently, there will be no called strikes at this tournament. Only pitches that are swung at and missed or foul balls will be counted as strikes.
