So what happens if there’s a pop up right above second base with a runner on second? Can the runner stay on the bag, or does the runner have to move off of second base and risk getting doubled up anyway just to avoid an interference call? 
 

Nevermind, I found it.

However, a runner is not obligated to vacate a base he is legally permitted to occupy to allow a defender the space to field a batted or thrown ball in the proximity of said base.

 

I feel like there should be an addition to that that says the runner is allowed to return to the base without it being interference. Was Vaughn supposed to wait until after Henderson caught it before trying to return to the base? He would have just been doubled up anyway.
