How about the play where under normal circumstances the runner would have had an easy home run, but the obstruction caused an injury such that the runner could no longer run?

The outfielders are fishing the ball from a stream 450 feet away, while the runner, after tripping over F3, lies between 1B and 2B holding his leg? Give him the home run?

(Before somebody picks on the technicality, let's assume there's no fence and the stream is in play!)
