Are you an umpire? The "you can't do it" expression is tired. The umps doing the world series are gonna bring in $400k+ this year, it's what they are paid to do.
If that play was never called interference, you wouldn't hear anything from either side - there would not be a complaint for the Astros, it was a bad throw and a bad stretch by Gurriel. But, it's a judgement call, it's also a bad rule.
Whatever team has that call go against them is going to complain. Teams are going to challenge any close call in the World Series. In the 3rd inning of Game 1, the Nationals came out to challenge whether or not Michael Brantley and the 3rd base coach made contact when Brantley was rounding 3rd. Didn't affect anything about the play at all (but if replays would have showed any contact being made, Brantley would have been called out).
Just glad the call didn't affect the game.
