Obstruction ???
ASA C State
R1 on 2nd base B2 hits shot to outfield rounds first and is obstructed going to 2nd base. R1 has rounded 3rd base and is a little more than half way to home when B2 is tagged out at 2nd. Base umpire kills the play having to called dead ball 3 times to finally stop play as the defense was trying to get R1 out at the plate.
What should be done with R1 as she was between 3rd and home when the play was killed? By the way she beat the throw home easily.
