Looks like R1 hits left shin of F2 before ball arrives based on photo. PU is off screen to the left, with left arm out and no safe/out signal on the play. My main question was can the PU put a runner back at 3rd on an OBS play at the plate. With this discussion I take that as a YES. Was it the right call here. Based on my view here, No. Based on the PU view, maybe. But his judgement is all that matters.

Well, I'm still looking for the OBS. Never saw any hesitation on the runner's behalf. Looked like the runner scored before the catcher came down on her leg.
Nope, this is either an out or safe at the plate, IMJ.
