As a member in good standing (maybe because they don't know me from Adam...) of the NFHS Officials Association (which provides members access to the pdf rule book), I'll help...

Rule 2 Definitions
SECTION 36 OBSTRUCTION (DEFENSE)

Obstruction is the act of the defensive team member that hinders or impedes a batter's attempt to make contact with a pitched ball or that impedes the progress of a runner or batter-runner who is legally running bases, unless the fielder is in possession of the ball or is making the initial play on a batted ball. The act may be intentional or unintentional, physical or verbal.
Please note the part I've underlined. Also, you have my permission to copy the above rule and underline the part about blocking a base.
