But let me ask this question:

Do we not award him 2B (if in our judgement he would have made 2B absent the obstruction), and thereby give R2 3B?

Not in OBR, where the award aims to nullify the act of obstruction. Without OBS, BR would have ended up on 1B. If that's where he is now, then we're good.
