Tagging 2nd would have prevented the runs. Chasing R3 backward did not. Interesting.

If the defense does their job and catches the ball in flight, no runs would score.
If F4 plays for the force at 2B, no runs would have scored unless the BR passes R3 prior to a play at 2nd.
Don't feel bad for the defense, their inept play
gave the runs to the offense, not the rule book.
