I'd award 2B too, unless I felt the runner was clearly not going to try for 2B. As for coaches actually instructing fielders to get in the way of runners, that's truly pathetic and disgraceful. Unfortunately, we must constantly be on the lookout for obstruction in girls' FP—it is actually more common than a triple or a HR. I have seen more instances of obstruction (3) in one girls' high school FP game than I did in all my years of playing baseball and softball.
And what is F9 doing standing in fair territory to back up a throw to 1B? Hey coach, why was the right fielder standing in the base line?
