It is my understanding that the system is automatic, and balls that haven't passed through the scoring gate would only get the regular 3pts... (I hope they got the full points).
The field reset crew attempted to clear the balls with the post, but were unable to do so. With the basket jammed and no points counted, the match was ended for a field fault. I'm still unsure if this was the right call or not.

That's from the standings page, so it was their full alliance. However, a majority of those points did come from 341 themselves. On Friday they were frequently hitting three balls in the top basket in hybrid, and very rarely fewer than two. On Saturday they tended to opt for scoring their starting two balls, then simply loading three balls from the coopertition bridge and waiting for tele-op to fire.
