R2 & R3 with 1-0 on the batter, catcher obstructs the batter's swing. Batter hits the ball down the 1st base line. The PU immediatly signals, points and calls "that's obstruction". The ball rolls into foul territory where it is touched by the pitcher. The catcher is on his knees holding what ends up being a set of broken fingers (so the obstruction is quite obvious). Place the runners and if necessary the batter.
This happened in a 16U game this weekend.
