Visual Obstruction Bosox @TB Sunday

[Jimurray]

Sorrry no video yet, grilling seabass. B5, R2, fly ball to CF, announcers notice F4 either deking a throw (not likely) or positioning to block R2's view. No point by U2 but even if you judged obstruction it was type 2 and no award in this sit. But announcers go on about how more infielders should do this as it is a smart move, which it isn't because it can be an awarded base depending.

Done with seabass, was good, picture how you wish. So now i can find and post this: Red Sox 2, Rays 3 (Final Score) on MLB Gameday Go to Booth in awe of Hernandez.

As Jimurray says, the clip is titled "Booth in Awe of Hernandez". 4th row down, 1st on the left (at least when I pull it up)

Have a hard time seeing it called OBS at MLB but it does leave it open to ump discretion. Unsportsmanlike territory for sure at LL level.

 

Interesting thing I noticed at 0:33 mark: ESPN marks a pitch on the edge of their marked zone a 'K' before the umpire makes his signal 🤨
