Wild pitch with R1 attempting to advance to 2B.

Therefore no obstruction.

I doubt there is one.

It's been a few years and I only did FP, but definitely no rule unless recently added.

My 2 cents.

Yup Thanks - I was referring to plain ol' tossed bat.

LITTLE LEAGUE thrown bat

I'm well aware of the myths surrounding an out for a thrown bat.
Obviously some town balls implement such a rule. :(
Is there such a silly provision specifically in any LITTLE LEAGUE rule sets?

I only do NSA tournament ball in Indiana.
After the ejection, I would return to my spot on the field and calmly count off 60 seconds. After 60 I would inform UIC we have a forfeit.
