Was questioned about force out automatically cancling any runs. Thanks

You are correct, the run counts, a time play. Welpe nailed above.
It is an out on appeal for failure to retouch or tag 2B, not a force out, after a fly ball is caught.
Typical "force out" challenge from anyone hoping the run would not count.
They correctly apply the wrong rule to gain an unfair advantage on an appeal play.
