If, when using the double base, and there is a force play by an infielder on the batter-runner, who touches only the white portion and collides with the fielder about to catch a thrown ball while on the white. Interference is ruled, the ball is dead, the batter-runner is out, and all other runners are returned to the base last occupied at the time of interference. This form of interference would only be used if the double first base is being used, and the batter-runner touches only the white portion of the base. If a collision occurs when using the colored portion of the base, no interference would be called.
