Here is a situation that happened to us this year...
playing in a tourney, HS Federation rules... bases loaded, one out... batter hits a slow chopper down 1st base line (fair)... first baseman runs in to get ball, trys to tag runner- collision -ump said runner, who is about 30-40 ft. up baseline was running slightly in fair side of chalk... Ump calls runner out for interferance... then says runner at 3rd base is out because the ump assumed that they prob would have turned two - in his judgment....
yes? no?
