Whiskers, I may be thinking about baseball here, but since this is the first play by an infielder, wouldn't it be 2 from the time of pitch? I know that's what it would be in baseball and I thought this rule was the same in softball. Just curious.

No, that's not what it would be in baseball. On the above situation, the award is two bases from the time of the throw (TOT). The first play was the catch. "First play" by an infielder refers to trying to retire the batter/runner, or a runner on a fielder's choice.
