I don't think that would happen often, if ever, but I guess it would be possible so to avoid the TWP argument, that is probably how it should be presented in an explanation.
At the time of the obstruction, the OP judged the obstructed runner would easily score. This is an awarded base that would be scored regardless of any timing play, it seems to me.

The put out of the runner at 2B is due to a poor baserunning decision... either trying to stretch a single into a double, or hesitating on a double and getting put out. Neither has anything to do with the obstruction, so the base is awarded and the run scores.

Is my reasoning incorrect?
