If so, then they can appeal, but the correct call is safe (ASA 8-2-M-5).
There's also 8-2-M-6, but I'm not sure how well it applies to your situation:
Was the thrown ball on target, or did it sail over F3's head?

For this particular play, the ball is "on target" (well, it the dirt, F3 just doesn't make the catch). I included this detail to eliminate all potential facets of the rule. Just your "run of the mill" play at first, B1 touches the white, followed by a dead ball.
