In Fed and OBR, the key to whether the out at 2B is considered a force in SC Ump's play is that the out at 1B removed the force before R1 missed the bag.

If R1 had missed 2B before the out at 1B (hardly impossible if he got a good jump and BR hit a high chop to F5), then the appeal at 2B would be a force play even though the BR had been put out at 1B.

In NCAA, since R1 was forced at the time the play began, the out at 2B would be considered a force regardless of when the out at 1B occurred. I think that's a strange rule. Abel on 3B, Baker on 1B, one out. Charles hits a ground smash to F3, who tags 1B to retire Charles. F3 then throws home in an attempt to get Abel, but Abel slides in safe and knocks the ball away. Baker misses 2B and advances to 3B. The defense appeals at 2B and Baker is called out. Baker was forced when the play began, so the third out is a force and Abel's run doesn't count.
