I am thinking when we verbalize OBSTRUCTION we follow it up with the base we are protecting the runner to. I'm thinking out loud here !
No, you cannot. The obstructed runner is not the only game in town. There can still be other runners, interference, missed bases, runner assistence, etc.

If you want a vanilla game, you may want to explore other options.
