Correct 1st base + 2 bases = 3rd base

Last one...

Batter hits ball to 2nd basemen who playing deep bobles the ball and attempts to throw the ball to 1st However Batter (who is now a base runner) crosses 1st base before the 2nd basemen has thrown the ball which then goes out of play. Is batter (r1) awarded 2nd and 3rd?
Again, correct.
