Quoted from Bandit's originial post:
If this rule is applied to its perfect sense I do not find it difficult to say that you could have obstruction on EACH AND EVERY tag play at ANY base.
Bandit,
You nearly do have obstruction on each and every tag play, especially
at the 12-16 age groups. Most think because they are the 2nd baseperson
that is their bag. The
majority of OBS is done at 1B. They stand in such a manner that the progress of the
baserunner is nearly always impeded. I agree with WMB who stated that
coaches must now teach the players the correct way to
make their tags
and/or play their positions.
I like the altered OBS rule, hope they don't mess with it anymore. I am
glad FED is following suit. AFA will more than likely tag along with ASA
also.
JMHO
