Runner slides and defense misses ball and a cluster scramble at base with both players being momentarily tangled up.
Runner sees ball is not caught and tries to get up but defense is hindering that effort. I've now got obstruction. Play continues with a continuous obstruction and the runner eventually get up and is heading for home with defense still contacting him for about 3 feet. Defense, while still tangled up in the obstruction, is going after ball now but trying to go thru runner so they are now bumping each other for another 4 or 5 feet past 3rd....each of them trying to get free of the other.
Any thoughts?

Was the OBS, particularly the final part, before or after 3rd?
