First - even in baseball the pitcher can throw to the base where the runner WAS, and the catcher can throw to ANY base.

Second - in softball there are no such rules (the pitcher can't throw ANYwhere) at all. The catcher (in both sports) is simply an infielder trying to make a play. She could throw to F7 if she wanted to.
