R1 on 2nd and R2 on 1st. 3 balls no strikes on B1. Next pitch is ball four and deflects off catchers helment and goes out of play. Umpire awards R1 home and R2 third and B1 1B on ball four. Doe the runners advance to 2nd 3rd on the ball four and then to home and third due to the ball going out of play? Your comments are appreciated.

According to the article I read the umpires awarded R1 home thus ending the game in the bottom of the 8th. I cannot find any justification for this in the rule book. Any thoughts??
