Provide me with a scenario of what you mean exactly. Where you would call OBS, because I'm not grasping it. Where are you drawing a line on this "chosen path" deal (if anywhere)?
If F5 in on the pitchers side of the 2B bag, getting the toss from F6 to turn a DP.. so the runner hook slides into F5 (with the likely intent of breaking up the double play), you are additionally protecting her with a DDB signal?
