How did he interfere with the pitcher making the play if the pitching misplayed it prior to any contact?


I wasn't aware that a play was over after a bobble.

In college baseball a base runner is not allowed to deviate at all from a slide into second base during a double play attempt. Any slight leg movement outside of the framework of the bag, or any part of the body sliding past second base will result in runner interference. Yet I am supposed to believe that when a pitcher bobbles a ball a full step inside the foul line between home plate and first base that he now fair game to be run over?

He has failed to make the play at that point. He's fair game. I'm not saying the runner didn't move, but the collision would have happened regardless imo leading to the same result.

If a runner attemps to steal second, but the throw is off up the baseline. When the shortop comes off the bag, where is the runner supposed to go as he attempts to dive forward? There's no opportunity to get the out; SS can't run over the runner to get to the ball, right?
