Question What do you have?

Situation is this:

In our local co-ed league, we have the following additional rule:

"TAKE AWAY RULE: Players must play their position. If a fielder takes a catch away from another player (and it is obvious to the umpire that the other player should have been the one to make the catch) the batter will be called safe. It is not a take away if the shortstop covers 2nd base or if the pitcher covers home plate."

Game situation:
R1 on first, number of outs doesn't matter. Batter hits a ground ball back to the pitcher, who fields it and turns to throw to 2B. F4 (who happens to be female) is standing on the bag, facing the throw with the glove extended to catch it. F6 (male) seeing that F1 is throwing to 2B, sprints in front of F4, catches the ball, tags the bag, and make a throw to 1B attempting DP (throw was not in time, R2 safe).

What do you have, if anything?
