R1, R3. R3 comes home on a play and scores. Ball deflects off F2. As R1 rounds 2B to go 3B, R3 picks up the ball as F2 is getting to it and hands it to F2. In the umpire's judgment, F2 had a play on R1 at 3B. By rule 7.11 in OBR, R1 is out for his teammate's INT since R3 has already scored and can't be called out himself.

Or, take the OP and instead of the runner being out, he scored and did the same action.

I wasn't saying to call the runner who scored out. I meant he can't be called out so another runner has to be called out for the runner who scored INT.
