Speaking ASA
Well, with R1 on 2B and R2 on 1B. After a defensive conference, they switch bases. If the umpire notices, s/he might want to engage in a little preventive umpiring by asking the base coach if the runners are on the right base.
If the coach says yes (DMC-dumb move coach), or, as the umpire, you don't realize it until play has resumed or about to resume. At that point, you call time, rule both of them out and eject the manager/head coach for unsportsmanlike conduct.
