I would generally say no given what you described. If F5 is stradding with her body behind the bag, not over it,to the point where the glove would end up being the closest to the bag and we were looking at a semi close play I don't think I'd have impediment. As for taking away the outside corner slide, one could say that the inside corner was taken away when F5 sets up on the home plate side (maybe a bit of a stretch but still true). Unless there is no real play at the bag and the runner wants to keep on going I think I'm OK with the straddle.
Until I'm shown to be wrong.
