LL has their rule books locked and you have to be a subscriber to get to them, but there are some videos open you can look at dealing with obstruction. Based on the videos, it appears LL has essentially the same ruling on obstruction as ASA for both baseball and softball, which I find intersting because watching the baseball games I cant tell you how many times I have seen defensive players camped out on the bases with no play being made and the runners are having to go around them. Not once have I seen an obstruction signal.

I saw the same play you are talking about. 6 umpires on the field, 1 whos only job is to stand behind 2nd base, watch that runner and make the call and couldnt see the stealing runner have to make a looping arc around F4 who was standing directly in the basepath.
