Now, the question is, because this is not an automatic award, would the runner have any chance to get to third without the OBS? If so, then award the base. Judgement call. But if the umpire said it was an automatic award, that would be grounds for a protest.

Actually, with R1 and R2, R2 has no where else to go. If he was obstructed, the award of third IS automatic.
