We have CO therefore,
The first question is:
Did all runners including the BR advance 1 base.
Answer NO:
Therefore, the first thing you need to do is enforce the CO infraction.
Let's forget about the MC for a minute. In the OP, not everyone advanced one base so if there was no MC, you would award all runners including the BR one base. We would be left with bases juiced 1 out.
However, in the OP R1 maliciously contacted F4 so R1 is out.
Final Result. R3 scores, R2 to third, R1 declared out because of MC and the BR to first base - 2 outs.
