Not sure what you mean. here's the note from OBR 6.07

NOTE: If a runner advances, while the improper batter is at bat, on a stolen base , balk, wild pitch or passed ball, such advance is legal.

Perhaps I wasn't clear in my example; I was talking about a stolen base, not a Hit / Run where R2 takes off and B1 makes contact which is a different scenario.
