Agree!
That's obstruction, and due to the fact R3 was stealing on the obstruction, score 1, batter gets 1.
In response to mandotheman, you are not penalizing the defense twice. The defense erred on a possible squeeze play. By not penalizing the obstruction on the possibilities of an offensive advantage, you actually penalize the offense.
