I could be corrected on this though.

You get one additional base in "type A" obstruction (7.06a). If the runner was obstructed before reaching 1B that would apply. I checked my PBUC manual and it says when the ball is hit to the outfield and the B-R is obstructed before reaching 1B, the obstruction is type B (no play is being made on the B-R). Isn't it great how baseball rules are totally clear on things like this?
