I wonder if R2 tried to "vacate" 2nd base to keep R1 from being tagged out (for two-on-a-base), while at the same time, running to first to keep himself from being tagged while off base.
Of course, it wouldn't work, because "passing the runner" would occur, and you'd have an out for that.
If R2 steps off the bag (toward 3rd) while R1 is tagged, is R1 still out (for two-on-a-base)?
