If you're going to call verbal obstruction at the Fed level, it needs to be a clear and unmistakeable action that obstructs the runner.

So, was the runner obstructed as a result of this action?
Did R2 break back to the base?
How do you know F6 was yelling at R2 to go back, and not yelling to F4 to indicate he (F6) was back in his proper position---thus meaning F4 should cover at 2B?

IMO, this is one that shouldn't be called at any level.


Just my opinion,
