B1 hits a screamer to F4 who catches for the out and immediately throws to F3 and drills R2 in the back as R1 is diving back to 1B. The ball ricochets of R2 and rolls into DBT. Base awards?
Robmoz,

(Aside: I corrected your terminology. On the softball boards, we use FED/ASA terminology which is: r1 is the runner farthest along the absepaths, or the first runner on base.(

As on any overthrow that goes into DBT, the runners get two bases from their position on the basepath at the time of the throw; so R1 is awarded home and R2 goes to 3rd.
