Mob at home plate?

[ronald]

I got this from the Fed Interpreter for MA.

Ron:

I can't tell from the video exactly where the ball was when the runner clobbered the catcher.

If the catcher actually had the ball, the catcher is not guilty of obstruction but the runner is guilty of a malicious collision. She is out and should be ejected.

If the catcher did not have possession of the ball, the catcher is guilty of obstruction. However, when malicious contact occurs, it supersedes the obstruction and the runner is out and should be ejected.

How did you see it?

That I have already stated.
