I'm not PWL, but...

Fed nomenclature has R1 as the leading runner, thus, with bases loaded, or runner at third only or runners at second and third or runners at first and third, the runner at third is R1.

R2 is the next runner and R3 is the last runner. So, in FED nomenclature, with bases loaded you would have R1, R2, R3 where you would expect to find R3, R2 and R1.

The runners in FED keep their designation, so, again, if the bases were loaded and all runners advanced one base on a hit, R2 would now be on third.
