Bad mechanics, but ok.

R1 is out twice? Huh? Is that a typo or a bad ump call? .

That's because he WAS.

Edit to add: Upon seeing a later post, I realized I've probably misunderstood what you meant. You are calling the runner from first R1, the runner from 2nd R2. I'm more used to the lead runner being R1 - a product of my working 80% softball, 20% baseball. My bad. Instead of deleting my post, I leave it here appending my apology! Sorry!
