An attempt by the fielder to go after a bad throw cannot be an excuse to obstruct.

What is F3 supposed to do on an errant throw? If he tries and fields it but in doing so collides with the runner BEFORE acquiring actual possession he will be guilty of OBS. His only other recourse would be to simply let the ball go which can have other consequences associated with it. Let's see what happens this year and maybe we or at least I am making a big deal over nothing. Pete Booth

I saw Interested Dump cold cock an R1 to R3 with a shiver forearm @ B2, laid him out flat cold KO. Then placed the tag on him, flipped the ball to 3B Coach as he ran out on the field screaming. ![]() ![]() ![]() Course they knocked him down every single pitch the rest of the game. ![]()

We were taught to plant on the inside edge of 1st base which is legal and forces the runner to take a wide turn around first base.
When I played, you'd have been flattened. And it's not legal if you make the runner go around you, which you almost certainly will.

Certainly some of the FED literature says that it still can apply. OTher FED literature seems to imply it can't. What seems to matter is whether the "trainwreck" "denies the runner access to the base." And I admit to not quite knowing how I'll apply that on the field. |

We've had different answers to this question from Indianapolis, however the most consistent take we've gotten agrees with your comment, but adds: "without possession of the ball." The train wreck caused by each player "doing their job" no longer applies if the fielder "in doing his job" is pulled into the runner's basepath by a bad throw and denies access to the base without possession of the ball. Trainwrecks beyond the bag can happen, (excluding FPSR) and trainwrecks in which the fielder has the ball but hasn't made a tag can happen.
