It seems in this case the call was correct, however I'm not buying your analogy. If that fielder is in the act of receiving the ball, then he can be there.

Are you trying to say that a 1B man has a right to be 4 feet from the bag to receive a throw from the 2B area in a rundown, does not have the ball, impedes the runner and you don't call obstruction?

No I didn't say that at all. I am saying, that if that fielder is in the act of receiving the balll, (4 feet) from the bag, then he can be there and the runner must go around, slide, avoid contact. However the fielder is not impeding the runner at that point. (Fed ball)
