Obstruction Call Mets/Phillies
Anyone catch this run down obstruction call? It looks like Victorino establishes his baseline and veers to his right to throw a shoulder into Reyes.

Yep, just saw it on Sportscenter 2 minutes ago. Yes, from that angle, I certainly don't have obstruction...I had to watch it w/o the volume because the Sportscenter people seemed to have reversed the terminology...the Mets coach also "beaked' the umpire too...the ump kept the bill of his hat below his.

Yep, looking at that call, I think I have an out for INT rather than awarding 2B for OBS...tough to say I guess

I don't think you can have INT on this, Reyes wasn't trying to make a play on Victorino, he was trying to get out of the way after throwing the ball.

That was definitely not obstruction. They kicked it. It wasn't interference either though.

Maybe we should set a standard Operating Proceedure.

If you make a post that disagrees with MLB, how about posting a link so the rest of us can check it out!

We really want to see how good you are!
