ORIGINAL: So, in reality we do not handle verbal obstruction any differently than we would a physical act.
If it hindered a runner or changed the "pattern of play" we would enforce the penalty.
What is and is not obstruction then lies with the umpire. That is the basis of your discussion.
Sounds like judgment to me.
