If she would have ran straight up on the ball nothing would have happened. This was clearly an oops on her part and U1 correctly did not penalize the runner.

I thought the zone was a little tight and was being called on where the ball hit the glove verse where it hit the plate.

I've umpired Jess since the time she was 8 through HS. I tweeted her that she had OBS/INT backwards again. I wounder if that is why she corrected herself.
Too late! She must have said "obstruction" more than a half-dozen times before she corrected herself. But it really didn't make any difference, she did not understand why the umpire did not call INT and was adament that it should have been INT, regardless of the obvious embellishment.

There was a dugout shot of Yee at the end of that inning and she was smiling big-time. Wonder if that was the play under discussion
