R2 was entitled to second base, because she was the lead runner, and BR did not have to go to second. So BR was "exposed", and in your case BR would have been out, had she been tagged when R2 was also on the base. But when R2 was OFF the base, then the base protects BR. That's why R2 was taking her foot or hand off the base when they tagged BR, and that's why BR was NOT out.

They should have gotten very close to the base and quickly tagged BR before R2 had the chance to get off. In that case, BR would have been out.
