1) I don't know what the specific ruling would be under "Dixie", but there's a difference between being "put out" by the defense and being "declared out" for a baserunning violation. The former can't happen on an award; the latter can.
2) Although the rule does indicate that a player with the ball can't obstruct, that player still cannot perform an egregious action (such as tripping, holding, etc). It's a HTBT, but obstruction is a possibility, imo.
