I thought the same thing, the catcher was basically sitting on top of home waiting for the ball. Now, the ball did arrive a second before the runner did, but she was definately blocking the plate before she got the ball.
By the way, was that the first base umpire that made the call? It wasn't the plate umpire but one of the base umpires that called the out. I've never worked three or four-person mechanics so I'm not quite sure how the rotation would have worked on that play.
