And that is why you guys are not in pro ball! It is a different interpretation at the MiLB/MLB level. The player should know better.
Ticky tacky call? So where do you draw the line? If he bulldozes him... okay I will call it? Your job is to enforce the rules, BLACK AND WHITE!
Dont give me this FED, Little League, PONY bull. Those kids are not professionals!

OBR definition says you are wrong..
OBSTRUCTION is the act of a fielder who, while not in possession of the ball and not in the act of fielding the ball,
impedes the progress of any runner
You must be able to state that the act impeded the progress of the runner.
(definition of impeded - made difficult or slow; )
Did this occur on this play, would he have been out if it had not occurred is the true question........
