Same as above except R2 was stealing on the pitch. R2 is allowed to remain at third.

Pete: in the sitch you mention, shouldn't we send that runner back? You would not give the offense the benefit of the doubt by assuming the runner would have succeeded in stealing the base.
In a different case: R2 steals 3B on the first pitch and then on the next pitch scores when the BOO batter grounds out to F4, we place the runner on 3B, not 2B. He stole on the pitcher, not from the batter's actions.
