In that situation, if the lead runner saw the following runner's predicament and could think fast enough, he would be sure to be out going back to 3B so that the play would be killed and everyone safe (with lead then safe at 3B and following sent back to 2B).

Conversely, a quick-thinking defense would let the lead runner get back to 3B so that they could tag the following runner.

Somehow, I doubt that I'll see this one in my lifetime, but you never know.
