runner interference on throw

FED rules. Bases loaded. 2 outs. Grounder hit to F6. F6 fields the ball cleanly and as she comes up to throw, R2 runs into her (no tag or attempt to tag occurs here) causing a hesitation and late throw to 1st.

Ruling please.

INT, but hard to visualize " R2 runs into her (no tag"

Agree on the unlikelihood of no tag... but assuming no tag, based on what rule would you rule interference?

8-6-10c: The runner is out when the runner interferes with a fielder attempting to throw the ball.

I was standing 8 feet away from the play...there was definately not a tag nor an attemped tag.

If INT on throw, delayed dead ball or immediate?

I think what Cecil and I were alluding to is that it would not require an attempted tag to have actually had an inadvertent tag here. Not impossible .... just strange.

When is INT a DDB, other than ump Int?

Coaches interference. Coach reaches out and grab a runner to stop her.

Other than umpire or coaches interference the ball is xead on INT. The reason these are not dead balls is that you dont want to penalize the defense for an offensive act.
