"Any obstruction between third and home the runner is awarded home. If the runner is obstructed before reaching third and the ball is inflight to third a play is being made on an obstructed runner. The play is killed and the runner awarded third.
Of course if the ump felt that an obstructed runner could have gotten more than one base he will award."
Teacher - That's not exactly accurate. The intent and wording of the ASA rule is to remove the effect of the obstruction. So for your runner who is obstructed between 3B & Home - if the umpire judges that the runner would have scored without the obstruction, award home. If the umpire does not judge that the runner would have scored, award 3B.
