R2 takes the linedrive (in air) right off his shoulder after trying to get out of the way. . .all the time R2 IS in contact with the bag. Ball ricochets off his shoulder, over the Right field fence and out of play. At the time the ball hit the runner, ball was fair

I know that R1 is not out - 8.8.M (contrary to the defensive teams plea's and arguements)

However, here comes the question on what to do next.

I decided to put the BR on 1st, R2 on 2nd and scored R1 from 3rd.

Why on earth would they think R1 is out?

Tell em to dream on.
