MrUmpire's example of an intentional trip with the other hand is of course OBS. My statement was poorly worded; that's not maybe, it's definitely OBS.
"How about without reaching out (an intentional act), how does he commit OBS?" That's what I was thinking of. If the fielder has the ball, I think you'd have to contrive some preposterous scenario where he commits unintentional OBS. I can't think of one offhand. It's interesting that OBS and INT are the subject of so many posts. Like everybody else, I see these infractions several times a season and try to be on guard for them, but this is such a change from when I played (1960s and early 1970s). Except for a few times when the bat hit the catcher's mitt, I don't remember a single OBS or INT call. (Of course, from high school through Legion, college, semipro, I can't remember a balk call, either.) Maybe my memory is faulty.
