Question
Guest Blueump
Here it is, can you provide insight?
R1, less than two outs. A shot back at the pitcher deflects off the pitcher's foot toward first base. The pitcher chases the ball into the baseline between home and first. The pitcher arrives at the ball ahead of the batter-runner. As the pitcher is reaching for the ball, the batter-runner collides with the pitcher (not malicious) and both players fall to the ground. The pitcher gets up with the ball and tosses to first base for the put-out on the batter-runner.
Choices are basically obstruction, interference or incidental contact - play on.

i think the answer they want is OBS because it was not a "step an a reach"

The pitcher became the protected fielder again and interference should be called when the collision occurred.

Yet another difference between how Fedlandia handles baseball rules and situations versus the rest of the baseball playing world. I think we should march on Indianapolis demanding change. Thousands
