You didn't state what rules you were using. You would only be correct if you are playing USSSA; they use the one plus one, the one you are going to (first, in this case) plus one (second).

In every other rule set of which I am aware (ASA, NFHS, NCAA, ISF), the award is two bases from the last base touched from the time the throw leaves the thrower's hand. No matter what direction they are headed. In your play, the runner was past first base; two bases is third.
