My take has always been that once F1 has delivered a legal pitch, it is the batters right to offer at the pitch. If F2 gets in the way and the batter is unable to offer at the pitch, I call obstruction (interference). I have had discussions with managers and/or head coaches but never an argument. I simply tell them that their catcher interfered with the batters right to offer at the pitch.
