Pray your state doesn't permit protests during the regular season, 'cause this is going to be a nightmare.
As I see this from the early view, there are three major problems:
1. Any time a throw is least bit off line runners are going to crash fielders in an attempt to draw an obstruction call and in most cases are going to succeed.
2. Every close tag play the offense is going to scream "He didn't give my runner access blue!".
3. Far too many simple train wrecks will result in obstruction calls and ejections. "He knocked my runner down blue. That just HAS to be an ejection! You eject my runner if he causes it".
Poorly worded rule, poorly worded and inconstant interpretation = disaster.
Better Fed to have copied NCAA or Little League on this. Both rules work and are very simple to understand and enforce.
