My question is: does it matter if Middlebrooks is in the base line or not? From what I saw, he's on the inside of 3rd base and is more on that line than he is the home plate line. Maybe lifting his feet was a way of clearing a path. I think not, but just playing devils advocate.

If Craig follows the home plate line, Middlebrooks may not obstruct at all.

I'm impartial in regards to this series fwiw

Middlebrooks stuck his feet up twice, he probably wouldve gotten away with it the first time. I dont condone the red sox players for their thoughts, theres alot of money and pride on the line. They do sound like whiners though.

This is the problem. The baserunner defines the baseline, not the foul lines. Once he touches third, he could run to the mound and then home as long as he's not attempting to avoid a tag.
