When that happened, I would have made a safe call.  Then, when R1 was tagged, assuming that R2 had not stepped off of third base, I would have made the out call on that runner.  I think the point is a great idea, along with announcing that the trailing runner, or even "that" runner with the point would get the message across. |  I'd be careful about announcing "that runner."  We all remember how well it was received when McCain talked about "that guy."
 
Let's not get into a political debate here; I use that only as an example of how it could be received to say "that runner" and point.

 I won't be coming here that much anymore.  I might check in now and again.
