R3, passed ball. Ball hits backstop and rolls toward 3B dugout. Pitcher comes in, straddling baseline, at least 2 yards in front of the plate. Runner collides straight up with pitcher at about the time the catcher picked up the ball. Your call?
I'll wait for the results to tell you my call and the coach's possibly valid (but eventually discarded) complaint.

Speaking ASA.
If "colliding straight up" means the runner could have, but made no effort to avoid the collision, she is ruled out and ejected.
If there was no time because the pitcher just jumped in front of her, it is obstruction, score the run.
