Hard to tell without replays, but it seems to me that the BR either knocked the ball out of F3's mitt, or got hit by the ball after F3 failed to secure it. Either way, it happened just as the BR was crossing the bag. I really don't see anything that would make me think that the BR violated the runner's lane.
