Don't have my HS rules handy at the moment, but.....Obstruction in FED is always a 'delayed dead ball'. I believe that is a term unique to FED (like so many other things). In the situation described, under FED rules, the BU would punch out a fist parallel to the ground, the mechanic for DDB, and wait until the play ends deciding how far he will protect the runner. If he had not reached that base, he would be awarded at the end of play. With that said, in the original situation,I'd say the catch nullifies the obstruction and R1 would be out on proper appeal.
