Obstruction
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fed Rules. On pick off play
large F3 when throw permits always takes front knee to the ground and uses thigh to block return to the base. I have Obstruction. Any disagreements?

If F3 drops to the ground then catches the ball then the runner contacts F3 -- probably legal.
If F3 blocks part of the base but leaves part for the runner, probably legal (and "part" means "part of the side facing second base").

Would it be the same if it was a small F3
