NCAA: Tie score, bottom of 9th inning. Able on 3B, Baker on 1B, one out. Charles hits a ground ball to F3, who steps on 1B to retire Charles and then throws home too late to get Able. At that point, is the game over, or is there anything Baker can do (like missing 2B or abandoning effort or punching F4 in the nose) to be called out on a force out that nullifies the run?

Or another version: Same situation, but home team down by 1 run. Charles grounds to F3 who steps on 1B to retire Charles, sees he cannot get Able at the plate, and throws to 2B in attempt to retire Baker. Throw goes wild into outfield and Baker ends up scoring, but missed 2B. Does the appeal at 2B void Able's run, too?

Sorry for using names, but I always seem to get R1, R2, etc., mixed up.
