It's now 12 straight days since last called a game because of rain and it is raining again tonight so I will gave you my ruling then let the pro's take over.

I believe per ASA it doesnt matter which way the runner is going if they are OBSTRUCTED on a play the only ways you can get that runner out between the bases they were obstructed on is if they cause interference or appealed out for missing a bag. So in your play if the obstruction had nothing to do with the runner being put out on a VERY close play at second, your only choice as a umpire is call the DEAD BALL and place the runner back on 1st.
