Someone asked me the question, I answered with the call I said above. The only thing I left out was the ball dribbled back out into fair territory & runners were advancing (one would have probably scored). The umpire did kill the ball, sent the runners back, placed the batter on 1B, but then had second thoughts since killing the ball deprived the team of a run.
I told him I'd post it here.

how can you assume the runners would have score on the batted ball if no catchers obs? there are a ton of possible batted ball outcomes that would not only not score the runners, but may lead to a double play.
its wrong to assume the batted ball would have done thing had the catcher not had her glove in the way
