F3 did not knock the BR to the ground. There was a slight crossing of paths, bumping, and falling down.

Again, in a matter of 4-5 seconds, each player was scrambling to get up and resume their softball activities. It's just that when F3 did so, she didn't go around the opponent.

For those who wish to break the play down into nano-seconds, perhaps there were multiple OBS offenses.

I called one that hindered the runner getting up and proceeding to second base, and as a result, had her protected between first and second.
