Reffin Rev,

1. It is a 2 base award from the runners' position at the time the pitcher initiated his delivery (Time Of Pitch (TOP)).

The R2 is awarded home and the R1 is awarded 3B. The BR is out on the IFF.

2. Depends on the rule code. OBR does not provide for a "safety base" at 1B. Under rule codes I have seen, the defense may not obtain an out by tagging the orange (i.e. "safety") base.
