The run counts. This is a time play, not a force out. All codes.

Here's this case play (from an older book, so the numbering might have changed):
9.1.1 SITUATION B: With one out, R1 is on third and R2 is on second base when B4 hits a long fly ball
that is caught by F8. R1 remains in contact with his base but R2 has nearly advanced to third. The throw
to F4 arrives at second base ahead of R2's return. RULING: R2 is out for the third out. If R1 scored before
R2 was retired, the run counts. The inning ended with a play in which the third out was not a force out.
