We all know not to look for boogers (trouble for some  , but knowing what to do if the defense coach finds the booger, might be worthwhile.
The timing play outs seem the answer, unless it's the BR not touching 1st for the 3rd out.

These can't be timing plays, as the bases these runners failed to touch were bases they were forced to advance to due to Batter becoming a runner...
I asked this of a rules guy I know. He agreed with me that by rule we should call this out. He also pointed out, however, that if BR was the first to "abandon", then the other runners are no longer forced to advance - thus making THEIR outs timing plays.
