D'oh! I missed that part and assumed incorrectly that the fielder was on the orange bag when the ball and runner arrived at roughly the same time. This is not obstruction.
The call is Safe, as the fielder has the onus on this play to use the white bag. However, since the BR, touched ONLY the white while a play was being made on her, the defense could have made an appeal for an out until the time that the BR returned to the orange base. 8.2.N
