ASA says that this is called a ball (immediately), and the ball is live, so you would expect the catcher to come out and field the ball, especially if runners can advance.
NFHS does not declare it a ball, nor allow any defender to field it IF IT IS HITTABLE. So it is either going to be a strike, or a hit ball, or a ball. In your situation, if that ball was hitable, the call is catcher obstruction.
