mikew,
We're getting closer, but it still depends.....
If the F5 had not yet fielded the ball at the time of the collision between the R2 and the F6 then....
Under OBR this is what is referred to as Type B Obstruction. In that case, you must judge whether or not the R2 would have been out at 3B if the Obstruction had NOT occurred. If he would have been out anyway, he's still out. If he would have been safe absent the collision, you award him 3B.
Under FED, you would award the runner 3B regardless.
