Batter steps out of box, goes to on deck circle to get something , catcher throws ball and hits her. Interference according to Chad

You keep posting it and nobody disagrees with you.
Yes, as you said, we teach our kids to not move so the ump doesn’t even have the opportunity to call interference . Because sadly many kids are now taught to do exactly what this catcher did
However I’m just pointing out even by the letter of the rule this call was incorrect because the batters movement outside the box did not hinder or impede the catcher from making a play on the runner

pride.
you're wrong. i know its hard for you to accept. The batter interfered with the catcher when out of batters box. By rule, that is letter of the law. Again, i'm all for adding integrity into the rule. But you're not proving anything by posting the rule as you did.
Guess what, if her throw missed the batter's head and the catcher did not create a contact with the batter then it probably would not have been interference. An interference of sorts has to be created to get the call on the field. Again, no integrity with how this bullshite catcher created and went about seeking this interference.

The travel team had kids from all over. Coaches gave players drills to video themselves doing and sending to coach to make sure they were putting the work in. Met up at the tournament and played.
This is how most of the big national teams do. Some even go to tournaments a day or two early to actually get practice in.

We’ll post that video

I’m sure that was the straw that broke the camels back. Pine Prairie is pretty trashy. Whenever you shut school down for the opening day of squirrel season, that should explain everything.

Yall would be surprised how much far worse stuff happens - even by future LSU players

the ball being thrown off her head while 100% out the box made it interference.
Doesn't that just make it open to interpretation as to whether its interference? This fact potentially makes it interference if, in the ump's judgment, the catcher was trying to make a play somewhere. If there was no legit attempt to make a play anywhere, then no interference.
I think yall are kinda not that far off from each other's position on this.

I asked around to see if anyone still had it. No luck.

You think the batter hindered the catcher from making the throw to 3rd?
The catcher had stepped up to essentially the back tip of the plate, then very clearly takes steps backwards and hurls it into the girls helmet, at an angle not even remotely close to 3rd base. All while having a completely unobstructed view down the line if she wanted to make an actual throw to 3B.

this part needs to be written into the rule as to interpretation what's a fake attempt and what's a real attempt. That is the problem.

Can't prove or disprove intent. Just get rid of the rule

Rule 7-4-2: “The batter shall not hinder the catcher’s fielding or throwing by stepping out of the batter’s box or making any other movement that hinders the catcher’s play at home plate or the catcher’s attempt to throw or to play on a runner.”
The ump has to make an interpretation according to the actual rule whether or not the batters movement hindered the catchers ability to make an actual play on a runner. It’s written verbatim Chad

by rule, the catcher does not have any obligation to go around a batter that has stepped out the box.

i'm in full agreement of the dirtiness and zero integrity action that took place. but letter of the law, there is nothing written as to giving the umpire much discretion into the integrity of the action.

it was immediately hindered when the ball came off her head while out the box.
