We had a situation in a game last night played under ASA rules. Hit to the fence in LC. Runner from first tries to score. Relay throw from SS arrives ahead of the runner not by much, but definitely ahead of her. She slides, but never reaches the plate. Tag is applied, but umpire calls her safe. Not sure, but when he realizes she never reached the plate, he says there was Obstruction. Seems there was no obstruction if the catcher had the ball and was waiting on her. I don't know the nuances of the ASA rule, but thought somebody maybe could enlighten me.
Thanks,
