Interference can also be called on the offensive team if a batter hinders the catcher after a third strike when the ball is not caught, a batter intentionally deflects any foul ball, and a baserunner hinders a following play being made on another runner after having scored or been put out.
When running the last half of the way to first base while the ball is being fielded in the vicinity of first, a baserunner must stay within the three-foot runner's lane to the right of the foul line unless they are avoiding a player fielding a batted ball. If the umpire determines that the baserunner has interfered with the player taking the throw at first base by running to the left of the foul line or to the right of the runner's lane, the baserunner can be called for interference.
Fielder Right of Way Definition Fielders have a right to occupy any space needed to catch or field a batted ball and also must not be hindered while attempting to field a thrown ball. The baserunner not only is allowed to run outside the baseline to avoid the fielder, he MUST run outside the baseline to do so if the fielder is on it. Another type of runner interference is when a runner is hit with a batted ball rule 7. To be deemed to be interference, the ball must hit the runner before the ball has been touched by or passed an infielder.
Interference can also be called when a batter is running outside the 3 foot line on the 2 nd half of the way to 1 st base, rule 6. This typically happens on a bunt or dropped third strike when the throw is coming from the vicinity of home plate. The other type of interference that is sometimes called is when a runner deliberately interferes either with the ball or a fielder to break up a double play.
If done by the batter, both he and the runner closes to home plate are called out. If done by a baserunner, both he and the batter are called out. The obstructed runner shall be awarded at least one base beyond the base he had last legally touched before the obstruction. Any preceding runners, forced to advance by the award of bases as the penalty for obstruction, shall advance without liability to be put out. Rule 7. The ball is immediately dead when this signal is given; however, should a thrown ball be in flight before the obstruction is called by the umpire, the runners are to be awarded such bases on wild throws as they would have been awarded had not obstruction occurred.
On a play where a runner was trapped between second and third and obstructed by the third baseman going into third base while the throw is in flight from the shortstop, if such throw goes into the dugout the obstructed runner is to be awarded home base. Any other runners on base in this situation would also be awarded two bases from the base they last legally touched before obstruction was called.
This is a judgment call. If the umpire declares the hindrance intentional, the following penalty shall apply: With less than two out, the umpire shall declare both the runner and batter out. With two out, the umpire shall declare the batter out. If, in a run-down between third base and home plate, the succeeding runner has advanced and is standing on third base when the runner in a run-down is called out for offensive interference, the umpire shall send the runner standing on third base back to second base.
This same principle applies if there is a run-down between second and third base and succeeding runner has reached second the reasoning is that no runner shall advance on an interference play and a runner is considered to occupy a base until he legally has reached the next succeeding base. The ball is dead and no runner may score, nor runners advance, except runners forced to advance. If runner is touched by an Infield Fly when he is not touching his base, both runner and batter are out.
With the minimum three batter rule scheduled to go into effect this year, if the substitute pitcher comes in the game with one out and gets the next batter to hit into a double ….

Runner Abandonment: Rule 5. Such batter runner is out, the ball is dead, and all other runners return to the bases they occupied at the time of the pitch; Rule 6. Such runner shall be declared out for the interference of his teammate or teammates; 5 Any batter or runner who has just been put out, or any runner who has just scored, hinders or impedes any following play being made on a runner.
If a fair ball goes through, or by, an infielder, and touches a runner immediately back of him, or touches the runner after having been deflected by a fielder, the umpire shall not declare the runner out for being touched by a batted ball.
