First off, sorry I confused a few people by using F1, I should have said F6. My bad.
So we have come to an agreement, a fielder can be in the basepath IF AWAITING a throw that requires him to be there? But if he's there and does not need to be it is obstruction. Either way, the runner should have only been awarded second base, because even without obstruction (which afterall didn't happen in the first place), he would not have reached third.
Thanks for the help guys.

The toughest call an umpire has to make is not the half-swing; the toughest call is throwing a guy out of the game after you blew the hell out of the play.
