the init poster's contention that the 2nd runner passed the 1st is not true
Right. Many people assume that some sort of "passing" has taken place in such a situation, but passing must involve physical passing on the basepaths, not simply touching a base that a previous runner missed.
It would have helped if the original thread had specified the number of outs, too. For example, if the play started with 2 outs and the appeal of the first runner had been upheld, then the run "scored" by the following runner would not count.
