The bold face is mine. The way you describe it, we have a delayed dead ball. Award runner second, but batter is out at first. There are several casebook plays that use the same wording: dead ball is called when the runner is put out prior to reaching the base she would have obtained had there not been obstruction.

That's odd. You quote the rule and bold the part that tells you this ball IS dead, and then say it isn't.
It is. BR is not out.
