You are both assuming the runner may be thrown out at 3B. You cannot send a runner back if she advances safely.

This is probably one where you signal the delayed dead-ball and watch how the pitcher responds with the ball. If F1 comes up throwing to 1B and I believe was totally oblivious to the runner, I may award the runner 3B if I believe she would have reached it safely had no obstruction occurred. Of course, that is unless I judge the runner didn't have a SBCIH, than I would probably leave her at 2B.

Definitely, a HTBT play.
