No they don't....POE #28-Obstruction in the PONY rule book is IDENTICAL to ASA POE #36-Obstruction-even including the point that coaches must teach a new way of covering the bases. The fact that the P had blocked HP was a moot point anyways in my judgement-that 'rolling impedence' halfway down the baseline was enough for me!

And also....the first thing the clueless coach (and fans of course)bring up is: (drumroll...) "She didnt touch her Blue!!!" Oh well.....
