The out on the B-R was the third out.

There is no possible 4th out force play appeal now because the force was removed.

The run counts.
This is what I thought, but I cannot reconcile it to 7:08 e

He or the next base is tagged before he touches the next base, after he has been
forced to advance by reason of the batter becoming a runner. However, if a
following runner is put out on a force play, the force is removed and the runner
must be tagged to be put out.


Technically the batter was not out on a force play.
