That's cheating? Show me a rule that was violated.
Didn't see the play, but there's this from the official rules:
INTERFERENCE
(a) Offensive interference is an act by the team at bat which
interferes with, obstructs, impedes, hinders or confuses
any fielder attempting to make a play. If the umpire declares
the batter, batter- runner, or a runner out for interference,
all other runners shall return to the last base that was in the
judgment of the umpire, legally touched at the time of the
interference, unless otherwise provided by these rules.
I've never seen or heard of a major leaguer pulling a stunt like this,
if that's really what Rodriquez did.
