CecilOne,
Since the OBS runner was put out prior to reaching the base which
would have been reached had there not been OBS. Since the play was
close, then umpire felt she would have achieved 2B. Each of the
other runners affected by the OBS will always be awarded the base
or bases which would have been reached, in the umpires judgement.
They probably felt R1 would have reached third when ball was thrown
to 2B for the tag play. Don't see where the situtation says runner
was OBS going back to 1B, just that during rundown she was OBS again. Regardless,
she could not have been called out between 1st and 2nd.
