To be called out for passing a runner, you must be COMPLETELY past the preceding runner with respect to the base you're going to. Any overlap and you're still safe. WRTwhich base do you think the following runner was closer to than the preceding runner?

One of my first thoughts on seeing the video was that R3 had retreated past 3rd towards second while R2 was on third. After watching it again I decided it was movement towards the bench not second, but I definitely see where he's coming from.
