Watching the replay, Jacoby had already misplayed the ball and then the collision occured. This is not intereference. The baserunner did not impede the fielder's ability to make a play. I would bet my bottom dollar that is what Serrano was arguing about.

Jones saw he was gonna hit the runner and that affected his play on the ball. Good call.

Nope. He was asking what time Reggie's closes.

That's ridiculous. Even if you made the bobble argument...he can and still could make a play.

Ok dude, I did watch the replay.

In fact here it is. LINK

Now YOU watch it. Jones is still able to make a play even after he bobbled it but the runner interferes.

The runner took the wrong path to the base anyway.

He should have attempted to run behind the fielder (in order to avoid any possible interference) regardless of whether or not Jacoby fielded it cleanly. Even if Jacoby fielded it cleanly, there's a good chance the collision happens anyway because of the forward momentum generated during the act of fielding the ball.

Hate to say it but according to the rule book he's right. With Jones running and bending over there's no way he just picks that up. Doesn't say anything about a runner getting close to hitting the fielder being interference. Runner should have been safe due to obstruction.


A.R. 3—If a fielder has a chance to field a batted ball, but misplays it and while attempting to recover it, the ball is in the fielder’s immediate reach and the fielder is contacted by the base runner attempting to reach a base, interference shall be called.
A.R. 4—If a fielder has a chance to field a batted ball, but misplays it and must chase after the ball, the fielder must avoid the runner. If contact occurs, obstruction shall be called.

it's the base runners obligation to get out of the way.

Ignore these dumb fricks...

Yeah, i'm glad we got the call but, he definitely booted the play before the collision.
