I took the OP to mean that the umpire's determination of Catcher's Obstruction was correct and without dispute.
And in ASA, 8-2-D-3 does not exist, nor would it apply in this case (since we don't call the BR out on catcher's OBS).
If you meant 8-1-D-3, then you bring up something I overlooked - the play should've been dead from the moment the catcher crossed home plate to hinder the batter.
