This is an appeal play. The umpire cannot make this call without an appeal. R2 not beating the ball back to 2B is moot since F8 falling through the fence means we have a dead ball, and the throw back to 2B is a live ball appeal.
Since the ball was dead, the defense would have to make a dead ball appeal for any missed bases / bases left too soon that they wished to make.
If the defense does not make a proper appeal, then the umpire would award bases according to PONY rules for a catch and carry.
So, to answer your question, no it was not the correct call.
