Cecil - It's possible she was safe. I definitely waited long enough to see the ball on the ground if it was going to happen. There was little to no unusual movement by F6 in an effort to put the ball back into the glove. Seeing any ball on the ground could've been blocked by R1's leg. That's why I was more than willing to get more information.
I'm confident the ball was in the glove and the tag was made. My partner could not definitively tell me how or when the ball left the glove of F6. Because I never saw the ball on the ground and he couldn't add anything for me to change my mind, we kept it as called.
Could it have been wrong? Absolutely! Did I call it as I saw it and within my judgement? Without a doubt! Would I have changed the call if my partner had more information? Of course. I'm more interested in getting it right than getting yelled at.
