I have not seen this play, but it crossed my mind recently and I was wondering how I should call it.

OBR. Nobody on. Abel gets a hit to right-center, where F9 cuts the ball off on one hop and fires it in toward F6 at 2B. Though Abel has no apparent chance at 2B, he takes his usual aggressive turn around 1B and trips over F3's foot. As the ball is coming in, Abel begins to return to 1B. However, the ball gets away from F6, and Abel tries for 2B but is out.

Would you award Abel 2B on the OBS, or would you let the out stand? Or would you (as in softball) send Abel back to 1B?
