Anytime a catcher is hit with a bat the ump calls the play dead

That's a rule? BS.

Avila moved into the path of Moss' swing to block the ball in the dirt. Plus he had no chance to throw Cespedes out. You guys got a gift.

That's convenient. If Moss can't swing in the batters box then where is he supposed to swing? How is it Moss' responsibility?

You've never seen an interference play before?

Its simple if the catcher goes into the batters box and hits the batter its called on the catcher the batter gets 1st base and all runners advance. If the catcher is hit by the batter and is outside the box its a dead ball
