More importantly, watching the ball position AS THE DEFENSE

Usually the player gets in the way late, no time to
ask them to move, let alone make them understand. If there is a coach on the line, they deserve whatever you call. Sidestep just as you would for any blocked view and make the best call possible, not guessing an out or strike, and explain the blockage after if you have to.
