or intentionally interferes with a fielder catching a ball or throwing a ball, or with a
thrown ball.
EFFECT Sec. 5. B. If the interference is not ruled intentional; the batter-runner is entitled
to go to first base. If, in the opinion of the umpire, the interference is an obvious attempt to
prevent a double play, the immediate succeeding runner shall also be called out. When a base

out. "
