How about prevented the batter from
legally hitting the ball?
In otherwords (the way I would call it), if the ball would never reach the plate or was heading toward a foul line away from the plate (as in a ball that catches the pitcher's leg as she is delivering) - I would NOT have obstruction.
However if the ball was heading, and would come to a position where the batter could hit it, I would have obstruction.....
