If the play presents itself, you can run R2 back a few steps, throw to 2B for the force on R1, and then you have R2 trapped.
If F5 spends time running R2 back he probably won't get the force at 2B. If F5 throws it right away F4 will turn for the DP and R2 will make it to 3B as F5 is somewhere else.
