What's this?

I think the issue is at what point does the interference stop. My

understanding is it's when he hits the bag. Otherwise, it would always be a judgement call on when the interference ends.

Since he had not yet hit the bag, it's interference. The rues can't anticipate every possible scenario, so in my view, it was a good call.

If he was trying to beat a throw from the infield, having his foot "over the bag" wouldn't make him safe.

As someone who doesn't follow baseball, the call makes no sense -- bulab 10/29/2019 10:52PM

If he'd touched bag before the collision, he's safe. -- 48zip 10/29/2019 10:56PM

This is crazy. At the time of the collision he's like 60% in the lane... -- Gobbler-100 10/30/2019 01:37AM

Exactly. He's just running for the base without knowing where ball is going ** -- Bleedin OandM 10/29/2019 10:54PM

But he was in field of play. Illegal to do that or everyone would. ** -- 48zip 10/29/2019 10:57PM

I can’t explain. Apparently 48zip knows the rule.All I know is replay sucks ** -- CPRVHokie 10/29/2019 10:54PM

Why? Interference was before touching the bag. ** -- 48zip 10/29/2019 10:48PM

That’s cause it was a crappy throw. Awful call. ** -- VTBB 10/29/2019 10:56PM

Why? Right to the glove.. Did you hear Smoltz? -- 48zip 10/29/2019 10:59PM

Smoltz said they are taught to do it because you might get the call. -- VTBB 10/29/2019 11:04PM

Yes. That's the reason for the lane. ** -- 48zip 10/29/2019 11:05PM

Don't follow baseball, always wondered what that line was for. ** -- RTFC 10/29/2019 11:09PM

And now, you will never forget! ** -- 48zip 10/29/2019 11:12PM

Horrible call ** -- Brown Water 10/29/2019 10:55PM

Ball was not thrown directly to 1st baseman. ** -- IB4TECH 10/29/2019 10:50PM

Doesn't matter. ** -- 48zip 10/29/2019 10:52PM

Now it probably doesn't, haha. ** -- MP4VT2004 10/29/2019 10:54PM

Yep. ** -- IB4TECH 10/29/2019 10:53PM

God. I don’t even care. This replay crap sucks. Just make a bad call and -- CPRVHokie 10/29/2019 10:51PM
