Under PONY rules, when a runner who is declared out (or after scoring) interferes with a defensive player's opportunity to make a play on another runner, the runner closest to home will be declared out. (9-8-r vs. 9-8-j) In this case, this would be the B/R. But this is under a separate rule and done so to avert a runner who has already been declared out interfering with an opportunity to make a play on another runner regardless of which runner it is. It seems the same, but it's really not.
