Two different plays

The following two plays happened in my last two games. FED rules:

Play 1--R1 & R3 one out. Batter hits a sharp ground ball to F6 who immediately flips to F4 for the force out. As F4 turns to throw to first, R1 (who is already out) is about 20 feet from the base still running. F4 alters his throw to keep from hitting R1 and throws the ball away. Do we have anything on this play?


Play 2--R1 & R2. Ground ball to F6. R2 stays on second for some reason. F6 tags R2 first, steps on second and throws late to first base. B1 after legally overruning first base turns and heads toward the first base dugout. At this point F3 retrieves the ball and steps on first base. Just before entering the dugout, B1 attempts to come back to first base. Before he can get there, a confused BU has called time out.

Any rule references on either play would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
