Second, Since Baker had successfully reached 3rd, during the OBS of Abel, he is effected by the outcome, and should be placed back on second, if in the judgement of the umpire Able would only have reaced 3rd.

Possibly so, but I think the others are saying that if Abel would have made only 3B, then Baker has no protection and is in jeopardy of being tagged out. All the answers to Play #2 had Baker out when tagged. Would you protect Baker in that play?
