    I'd have to see the exact rule but it sure looked unintentional, natural and the runner was nowehere near the base and not on or near the baseline. I don't think that was the right call.

    Fitting end to a terribly umped game. No consistency behind the plate and now that garbage. What is Middlebrooks suppose to do there

    I don't think it matters if its unintentional.

    Its the right call Middlebrooks lifts his legs up. Slight movement of the leg upwards more than enough to affect the runner.

    Does it matter that the runner was like 3 feet to the left of the base and just tried to go right through him instead of around him on the baseline?

    Redsox fans, talk to your catcher already. Jeezus. The asian sensation woulda gotten you outta that mess if you left the cards guy at third.

    I agree 100%

    But honest question, if he justs stumbles around and goes back to 3rd does Joyce make the call!?

    It was more of a defensive hold that an obstruction.

    That was awful. Just saw a bunch of replays, unreal.

    I was on the cards, playing boston next.

    That is a shit way to lose. Is it because he slightly lifted his leg?

    Rule 7.06(a) [Type A Obstruction]
    Criteria: Play must be attempted on obstructed runner at the moment obstruction is called.
    Criteria 2: All instances of batter-runner obstruction before he reaches first base, regardless of whether or not there is a play being made on him at the instance of obstruction.
    Execution: Ball is immediately dead and penalties imposed.
    Penalty, All Runners: Umpire's discretion, to bases "they would have reached...if there had been no obstruction."
    Penalty, Obstructed Runner: Mandatory minimum of a one-base award (awarded from last base legally touched at the time of obstruction). May be awarded additional bases.

    Rule 7.06(b) [Type B Obstruction]
    Criteria: No play is being attempted on the obstructed runner at the moment of obstruction.
    Execution: Ball is live, play proceeds until no further action is possible. Penalties imposed after play.
    Penalty, All Runners: Umpire's discretion, imposition of penalties to "nullify the act of obstruction."
    Risk: Because the ball is live throughout Type B Obstruction, an obstructed runner may be declared out if he runs past the base he would have been awarded under Type B's penalty.
