AFA, IFA, and I believe NAFA have a rule about a runner being obstructed during a rundown. They are awarded the lead base.
AFA also has a rule about flagrant obstruction, which I think this MLB play might qualify. The penalty for that is an immediate ejection. Flagrant Player Obstruction: The fielder shall not at any time flagrantly (with deliberate unsportsmanlike intent) impede the batter, batterrunner
or runner.
