Oh no.

Um, Dep... you want to read that rule again?

No. There is no ASA or FED rule prohibiting a fielder from blocking a runner's view of the pitcher (or any other view of the runner for that matter).

ASA 6.5.B covers a fielder taking a position in the batter's line of vision.

Manny's play involved a fielder intentionally positioning herself to block the line of vision of a base runner prohibiting her from seeing the release of the pitch. NCAA 9.4.2.7
