I know that many here look down upon NFHS Rules, but some of us here only work NFHS Rules, and logically it makes sense: R1 on 3B, next two batters make outs, R4 on 1B, and B5 is the Batter.
I will admit that labeling the Umpires U1 for the P and U2, etc. for the Bases is stupid.

Crap, Mark, you know better.
If posting on the NFHS site [does anyone, anymore?], OK, follow their idiotic nomeclature: but everyone else on the planet reads "R1" as "the Runner on 1st"; and except for BOO issues, couldn't [and need not] care less who is "B1" ... "B5".
