OK,
Last night there was a play at the plate. Not a FPSL. Catcher is on the line, in front of the plate. Runner, ball arrive at the same time. The runner did not slide , which didn't help matters, but there was no overly physical contact.
I called the catcher for obstruction, for being there prior to receiving the ball, what say you?

IF the runner was "hindered" and if the "hindrance" happened before F2 caught the ball, you are correct. That's not how I envision the play.
