Refer to rule 2-24-1. BR does not meet this definition. As per Fed Rules.
Refer to 9-1-1 and you'll see that BR is treated separately as respect to a runner being forced. This being the case BR is not "forced" at first. The net effect as it concerns a run being scored is that they are treated the same.
Incidently this is a moot point as it pertains to this thread.

2-24-1 is the definition of a force out nothing to do with a runner
9-1-1 tells how a team scores and What exceptions a run would not score

2-24-1 has everything to do with a runner. It describes how a runner is forced out.
9-1-1 Makes a point of illustrating that a run cannot score if the third out were a result of a force AND that a run cannot score if BR is put out at first. If the out at first was a force out as per definition there would be no need for this rule. Ergo BR cannot be a "force out". Although they are treated the same.
Nowhere in 2-24-1 is BR ever mentioned. It refers specifically to runner(s) being forced to advance.
I grant you that most people think the out at first is a force out and you can also if you like since it's treated the same as a force out, however you want to look at it, it really has nothing to do with this thread.
