Now, we had obstruction on the steal. What is the call? What rule?

In ASA, the rule is 8-5-B-1-b,

An obstructed runner may not be called out between the two bases where obsturcted unless properly appealed for leaving a base before a fly ball was first touched.

Other exceptions to this rule are a missed base appeal, an act of interference, and passing another runner.
