Wait a minute! The case stated has no bearing on the play given here. While similar, it wouldn't apply here. Here, the BR goes back to 1st. In the case book, she doesn't. I'm afraid I'm gonna disagree here and say no call, good job by the catcher, bases loaded.

As long as the BR commits immediately to 1st base, and it sounds like she did here, there is no penalty.
