My OP very similar. Reds F4 receives ball before Fox starts slide. F4 has glove stationary in front of bag (high) well before the touch of the bag.
Before replays the tv audience didn't know if there was a tag and neither did the stadium crowd. The expected call was "out"
Only after replay was it an "obvious safe"

Watch it again, tag was NOT in front of bag. It was on top (over) of the bag. Never in front.
