Please redo this. This makes no sense. F1 is the pitcher. 2B is a base, not a fielder. When, and how, and by whom was R1 tagged? What really happened here?

PS - sounds like obstruction to me, before any possible interference.

I think this.
R1 on 1B, grounder to 2B, R1 runs into F4 , knocks her over and STAYS there for like 2 seconds, F4 finally gets a chance to make a way late throw to 1B, I wait a second for my unsure partner, and finally yell, DEAD BALL!
