Do would think that you would have to determine that R1 would have scored prior to where R2 reached the point where the passing took place? Getting complicated, isn't it? By the black and white of the rule, probably not.

However, without a specific interpretation, and using other OBS interpretations as a basis, I think you could sell that award. In your judgment, that is what would have been the result of the play had the OBS not occurred.
