I hope not, that would be a whole different rule
Unless the contact was, in your judgment, meant to cause harm to the defender (as opposed to just gaining access to the base), it would be OBS. Sounds like the runner stays at 3B and you will have to tell the defense about the fielder giving way as the entire team is going to believe there is a rule against "pushing" another player.
