Infield Fly & Interference

This was a game-changing event that changed the outcome of the semi-final matchup between Bear River and Spanish Fork in the 2019 Utah State playoffs. The infield fly rule was called on this pop-up to the first baseman. The retired batter-runner then hindered the first baseman's ability to catch the ball, resulting in an interference call by the first base umpire. What appeared to be the winning run sliding into home, turned out to be the called out, by rule (when there is interference by the retired batter-runner, then the runner closest to home is called out), for the third out of the inning.
This is the full version of the play, including the ruling by the tournament UIC. Make it a great game! Michael Leavitt - Orem, Utah
