I agree with both of you;
--maybe it was a brainfart
--maybe it was the first national for this umpire
--maybe 3BU should have reversed her own call
--maybe 1BU said it WAS obstruction during the conference
--maybe it was a lot of things
Anyway, PU calls conference with umpires, they decide it was interference, PU calls coaches together, tells them it was interference, runner is out, third out, no runs score.
Defense very happy.
Offense very unhappy. In the end, two coaches were ejected (one for place-kicking the ball over the fence, the other for thumping PU in chest with rule book), and umpires had to have an escort from diamond to the changing room.30 to 45 minutes after game ended (team on offense in scenario lost) the team members and parents are still walking around the park looking for the umpires that "cost us a national championship." Three umpires for the game were taken away from the diamond in a vehicle.
