No interference shall be allowed when a fielder reaches over a fence, railing, rope or into a stand to catch a ball. He does so at his own risk.

Rule 3.16 (comment). Dear rich people at Target Field: if an opposing catcher ever reaches into the stands for a foul ball like Drew Butera did for the final out last night in Chicago, do NOT cower like the Sox fan in the front row did. Your job is to deflect that ball, and if possible, slap the catcher right across the mouth.
