Now there are two runners on 2nd base. Instead of just going to third and tagging the base, shortstop goes to 2nd and tags both runners. Out #3.
Is this still considered a force, regardless of who SS tagged first? Run doesn't count?

If both runners were touching the base when tagged only the tag of the forced runner would count no matter what order they were tagged. No run scores.
