In my original post I stated that the home team was batting with 1 out and the bases were loaded.

You just go on about the play and calling runners by their WRONG names! R1 apparently started at third, when that should be called R3 - see why?
I thought the runners were labeled with the runner closest to home having the smallest number. That is, R1 is at 3rd, R2 is at 2nd, and R3 is at 1st in a bases-loaded situation. If that's incorrect then I do apologize for being WRONG and will amend my original post as needed.
aparkysdad,

You are correct in you arrangement of the runners. R1 would have been at 3rd, R2, at 2B, and R3 at 1B.

Obviously orangeman has not learn to read. You also stated the number of outs.
One.

Your question was answered by previous postings.
