Coach, so you're telling me there are situations where there is physical contact on a runner by a fielder(without ball and no impending throw) during a rundown yet no obstruction should be called?
As stated earlier, I was always taught that for type A obstruction, the easiest call in the world is if there is physical contact on the runner by a fielder. No ifs, ands or buts that was obstruction and award the next base. Was told that this is just a easy a call as a grounder that hits third or first base(fair ball).
