Obstruction on F6, who is not making a play on the ball. R1 and R2 score (award if necessary). B/R out on interference, eject for malicious unsportsmanlike conduct.

Speaking ASA.
What interference? It was noted that F4 was spectating, therefore, I assume that player was not about to take part in this play in any manner.
Since the runner can basically run anywhere they want when there is no play being made on them, the BR owns this portion of the field. So, the umpire would have to see something pretty damaging to rule it intentional, but there is no rule allowing the umpire to call an out. Actually, unless the BR changed his/her route to create the collision, you have another obstruction call. The question then becomes, where are you going to place the substitute for the BR after the USC ejection?
BTW, both runs score.
