I agree.

The reference is Rule 8, Section 4 Runners entitled to advance:
Art. 3...A runner is entitled to advance without liability to be put out when:

f. the ball is in play and is overthrown (beyond the boundary lines) or is blocked by the defense.
Penalty: (Art. 3f) All runners will be awarded two bases and the award will be governed by the positions of the runners when the ball left the fielder's hand. Runners may return to touch a missed base or base left too soon. If two runners are between the same bases, the award is based on the position of the lead runner.

Page 66 in the 2018 rules book.
