Ruling (straight from the OBR book): Three outs, but the run from 3B is still permitted to score on the award.

The run scores because R3 was forced home. The third out was R2
after he touched 3rd (to which he was forced to by the BR awarded ball 4). The third out was not a force out or the BR not attaining 1st base.

Ruling: Three outs, no run, because the BR was "declared out" rather than "put out."
Is that correct?

Let's see here.... I say incorrect!
Bases loaded, 2 out. Batter walks, all runners have to move 1 base. BR touches 1st base
then passes R1.
BR is out - 3 out, score the run on the force from the walk.
