Unless the coach placed themselves in/near basepath to literally block the runner's path, I don't see the issue.

Well, that depends on what he was warned about. I've reminded some 3rd base coaches in rec ball about the "physically assists" rule, only because they were getting way too close to their runners. Would I be so nice in a tourney? No, just rec ball. Most coaches have no clue, so I'll give them a courteous "nudge" in the right direction.
In the end, mcrowder's call was the right one.
