Protoss can block pretty well, the pylons are not that limiting. Zerg can too but need time to get the hatchery in place. Only versus mass comps do you need that so tight nothing can get by not even a zerling seal. In fact having an imperfect one often entices your enemy to attempt to run past (meaning you usually slaughter them without even taking damage :) ) A couple units to stand in their way usually messes them up enough. Blocking chokes works great versus comps, but if you rely on it for anything but early anti ground versus a human player they will just shurg their shoulders build air/drops and slaughter you. :ph34r:
Oh and don't use just supply depots to block. Use a depot and a flying building (usually barraks) so you can unbock when you are ready. I groan/quit the game when I see someone use multiple depots to block because I know they don't just suck, they REALLY suck, and I won't be having any help in the game until they have their 24 battle cruisers. :wacko:
