Obstruction

[Just Curious]

Being my first season, I'm a bit hesitant to comment on most of these threads... But let me ask a question? With obstruction, I am under the impression that a delayed dead ball signal would be given and any action from the umpire would be only in the event that the obstructed runner was put out getting to the next base. Other than that the obstruction would be ignored... There I said it and put my neck out on the block How far off base am I?
