Thanks for rapid reply.

Runner was just short of 2B when call initially made, then continued on until
told to return.

Umpires watching told me I should have called R1 out also since she was runner nearest home. Although I could never get a reasoning [ruling] as
to why from them, so I was just coming to ask the experts. {And this is
not to be a smart alex statement}, cause there are many of you here.
