In OBR, B/R has no "duty to avoid contact" when the throw draws F3 into his path.

A fielder in possession of the ball can block a runner's access to a base, including 1B. In fact, I don't know that there's anything a fielder in possession of the ball can do to commit OBS. (Maybe deliberately trip the runner?)

As Bob says, maybe Fed is different from OBR in this regard.
