A few details missing here....

Did the BU or PU ever give the obstruction sign? If so, when did the arm get dropped? Knowing this will determine if the girl was protected to home or not. The coach should have been watching for this. If the arm was dropped shortly before 3rd, she ain't getting home from me. I know a lot of the umpires I call with will drop the arm shortly before the obstructed runner gets to the base the blue will give her. (Award her ) This lets the coach and/or runner know where the protection is to. Go any further and it's at your own risk.

It is a HTBT, but knowing when the arm was dropped on the delayed ball signal will also determine if it was a good call or not. At least in my eyes.
