I saw replay on Sports Center this morning.

I was curious to see they had to confer about it though.

The 1st base ump had to see the obstruction. I was surprised to see runner called out at first.

And, where was the delayed dead ball signal from either BU or PU?

Glad they got it right though!

There is no "delayed dead ball" signal in OBR. You have a type 'A" obs play here. "TIME", thats obs, he gets first.That is the proper mechanic. Tybe "B", point to the obs and let the play continue, award accordingly. See, even MLB screws up!)
