Re: However, BRD 85-238 . . .

On appeal, R2 is declared out for missing third: 3 outs. RULING: In NCAA, even though two following runners were put out first, R3's run is canceled: R2 was forced to third at the time of the pitch--and never legally made it. In FED and OBR, because the baserunning error occurred after the out at second, the force on R2 was removed and R3's run counts.

This play seems analagous to my second play above. That's why I'm curious about the answer to my first question.
The key is how you interpret 8-5j EXCP "However, if a runner is put out during live action, it does not remove the force on any runners who might subsequently be declared out for a running infraction."
