Read ISF Rulebook Section 10 The plate umpire shall have the authority to make decisions on any situations not specifically covered in the rules . As you can see these are very wide powers and should you think a push warrants an ejection and an out it is up to you . It is your judgement . Personally I think it is overkill but then I didnt see it .

Debeau,
All right, thank you. Rule number ten it's ok to me... But in my experience this Rule was (too often) used by those kind of umpires who didn't care enough about KNOWING the rules. That's why I asked about a specific rule...  A.

OK, I understand what the Case Book says,which is basically what I did, but what about the obstruction? Do you just consider that null and void after the shove? It seems like this is a gray area that just needs to be handled as fairly and judiciously as possible by the blue on the field. The Case cited and then quoted doesn't cover the OBS part of the question.

If you apply the flagrant misconduct case, and declare the runner ejected and out, the OBS becomes moot, doesn't it?
The OBS rule also makes it clear that an OBS call does not protect the runner from subsequent violations. Given the bad blood situation, I can see warning the F3 (and her coach) that she needs to stay out of the way of the runners. Then, if she does this again, eject her.

Hey Blue,
I would love to see more Umps like you take a stand against poor sportsmanship. The Fast-pitch game at the 10U and 12U level has too many young players who are coached into bad attitudes and it shows on the fields. I see it every Saturday. I took my 12U's to Forney, Texas last year and after beating a team who had an obvious grudge against me by a score of 8-1 the coaches would not come back out on the field for after-game handshakes. In fact about six their players came out on their own. One Ump came up to me and said, "I hate to see kids taught that way". Keep up the good work Blue. Coach12

Revised edition
SRW,
They are printing a new one for you, with lotsa pictures and taking out all of the polysyllabic words. BTW, I have an out and an ejection. And if the roles are reversed, as SRW knows from a certain game we worked, I damned sure have an ejection. It was not only my first ejection of the year, but the first kidney punch of the year as well.
