Here we go again....

Obstruction is a violation by the defense. If there is ANY doubt about how far the obstructed runner would advance, award the next base.

If you do not award the next base when it is warranted, the defense has committed a violation with basically no penalty. There is no incentive for the defense not to obstruct.
