I believe the correct call was made. Rule 8, Section 7, Part J in the ASA rule book. The runner is out when the runner interferes with a fielder attempting to field a fair, batted ball. I don't think obstruction by the fielder is correct because the fielder was attempting to field the batted ball. If she was just standing there when the runner took off without the ball hit, THEN there is obstruction, I think. I would say the men in blue got it right.
