Obstruction/runner hit by ball
Had this happen in a PeeWee game the other day
Batter hits the ball toward the middle of first and second. Second base fielder is lined up in the base path. Runner on first slows down to avoid the second baseman. Runner is hit by the second baseman and then hit by the batted ball. Runner is safe at first and second. I rule that the runner would not have gained any further bases and leave it be, runners at first and second. What is the correct call?
