Agree with BretMan and CeiclOne.
I had a very similar case this year while BU.
On a hit ground ball to the outfield, there was obstruction at 3rd base (blocking the base), and the runner missed 3rd base on the way to scoring at home plate.
The defense properly appealed the missed base.
I immediately called both coaches and the PU together and explained, that there were 2 infractions on this play at 3rd base: obstruction by the 3rd baseman and the runner missed 3rd base. I sent the scored runner back to 3rd base.
Both coaches agreed. Next batter. I still don't know if this was the proper call, but all were pleased.
