Ok, you cannot commit obstruction if you have the ball, and catcher had the ball before Cain got there, even if only by a millisecond, so what is the complaint there?

 

Exactly.

 

He had the ball in his glove, so how can you expect him to step aside in that instance. He had the ball and applied the tag.

 

If the catcher is expected to move out of the way, and risk missing the tag, the rule is even dumber than I thought.

If the throw forces the catcher into the base path it is the defenses fault and it should be called. Make the fielders throw the ball to the proper place. Otherwise the rule is dumber than i thought.

Hader has given up 1 HR in the past 6 weeks. I don't think the long ball is still a big issue with him. At least not compared to the rest of the bullpen.

 

This did not age well.
