Rules expert coach, according to him... definitely an obstruction expert.
Both of these are same guy - ASA 18U "A".
1. I'm BU. Bunt Grounder down the line to F3 who is shallow. F3 fields the ball and turns to toss to F4 who is covering 1B... BR goes around F3 and is thrown out on the banger at 1.
Blue.. she just cant get in the way of my runner like that. My runner gets a lane.
2. I'm still BU, F2 up the line a little awaiting throw, Runner coming from 3. R1 makes contact with F2, F2 misses ball.. Runner scrambles to home. R1 safe. Partner has no call. Contact was not USC, just some minor contact from F2 in the way but it did cause F2 to miss the ball I'd guess. Coach is all over PU wanting runner out for not sliding. Coach is walking away from the convo in a huff, I've been hovering in vicinity... he looks at me. "What about you, do you have the same thing as your partner." ..
"No".
"Ok, so what did you have."
"Obstruction on your catcher."
"WHAT!!!".
Priceless...
