That is standard softball nomenclature; see the front of a casebook, either NFHS or ASA. Runners are R; the runner furthest advanced is R1, second most advanced is R2.
Yes, it is different in baseball; that doesn't make it more accurate, just different.
It is possible that R2 is at second; if R1 is at third!!
