Runner from first pass him on his way to third, meanwhile runner from third has scored. Does run counts?. I think it does because it wasn´t a force out but a rule´s passing a preceding runner.
would you guys let me know your oppinions and why´s
The runner doing the passing is out the instant he passes the other runner. This would be a timing play as to whether R3 touched home plate prior to the passing incident.
