Reply to "Obstruction question"

The arm out is a Fed thing? I know for sure it is a softball thing. Crutch, don't see how? Why point at a balk, everybody knows who did it? Just another form of communication. Give's blue that added look of "knowing what he's doing and is "all over" this game."

I'm looking at an old, old FED UM, it shows the arm extended and a fist.
The def: signifies an infraction for which: 1. the penalty may be ignored; or (2) bases may be awarded after no further advance is possibley.

So as I'm training/traineeeing, I'd rather hear DDB than a long winded definition that will surely include the term/s; delay, killing, dead ball... in these situations, just becasue there is no such term as DDB.....
