Runners at first and second base, two outs and a 2-2 count on the batter. As the pitch is delivered, the runner from second breaks for third. I call the pitch a strike and the catcher drops the ball, the batter takes off for first base. As the catcher throws to third I hear "that's obstruction at third" come from my partner and he's giving the signal. F5 tags the runner and my partner says "stay on the base, I have obstruction on the third baseman, the runner is safe." The batter runner has reached first base, but the runner who was at first stopped running when she heard my partner call the runner at third safe and declared obstuction. F5 sees the runner between first and second and throws to F4 who tags the runner and my partner bangs her out.
No coaches came out about any of the calls.
Does anybody but me see a problem with this play?
