Bases loaded, batter walks and the ball gets away. Catcher retrieves and fires to the pitcher at the plate, startling R3 about 10 feet from home. I tell them again we have a walk. Pitcher takes two steps toward R3, who begins retreating to 3rd. I repeat - we have a walk. Pitcher walks toward mound, R3 continues toward home and pitcher fires home, the ball getting to the catcher right ahead of the runner. Catcher is in the baseline with the ball and tags the runner, who runs (slowly) into her standing up - not a crash at all. I repeat - we have a walk. Runner goes around the catcher to the left, catcher holds the ball and stays between her and the base, and runner goes to the 1st base dugout. Runner did not make any further effort to reach home.

When she hits the dugout, catcher appeals that she missed the plate.

Do I have obstruction on the catcher, or do I have a runner out for missing a base?
