Reply to "Batter's Interference on Catchers Throw"

The batters box offers the batter some limited protection. He can not be expected to disappear.

It does not mean that he can not interefere while still in the box, he certainly can, but just standing still is not interference......

Catchers need to throw around the batter....if the batter does nothing....I have nothing...If he throws and hits the batter.......then play on........

If he throws the ball through the batters ear hole deliberately then Im getting at least 2 ejections....(Catcher and coach who told him to do it.)

Actually standing still is the best thing the batter can do.....many times I have seen interference calls come from the batter trying to get out of the way of the catcher...........
