Out or Obstruction?
A truly dead horse subject, but...
Typical "play at the plate" scenario. Runner rounds 3B, slides into HP. F2 catches the ball, makes the tag, collapses on the runner, stopping the runner's momentum. No OBS a this point. In the process of the play, while F2 is on the runner, the runner still has not yet touched HP, and the ball pops out. F2 reaches for it, while still lying on the runner. She grabs the ball, and touches the runner with it. The runner has not yet touched HP.
Do you have an out? Or do you have F2 OBS'ing the runner without the ball?
