not in the act of fielding a batted ball
Per Dakota (my underline), "For obstruction, the fielder ... not in the act of fielding a batted ball... impeded the progress of the batter-runner" is the point; although I guess I should check the NCAA book for its wording. And of course, the umpire has to judge that F# was "not in the act of fielding a batted ball".
