Trainwreck or OBS?

If an errant throw takes a defender into the path of a runner, is there any rule set where this would be obstruction?

LL (I think, based on what I've read on the variosu forums -- I don't do that level).

FED, if "total access" to the base is blocked by the defender.

An errant throw in LL does NOT result in obstruction per the interpretation given in "Fairball" when the rule was changed to its present form.

As I read Kyle's question - I was thinking of the classic F6 to F3 throw that pulls F3 down the line into the path of the BR...
