If you first appeal R1 missing 2nd, then R2 missing 3rd, you'll get R1 out on a force, but then you'll have removed the force from R2, which means that even though R2 will still be called out for missing 3rd, the run will still score and the game will be over.
And let the s***storm begin when the you tell the coach that the run still counts because he appealed in the wrong order.
