Was working an 8U game last week, and there was a runner on 1st with less than 2 outs. Batter hit a grounder to F3, and R1 froze on 1st. F3 tags the base, then R1 takes off running, she get's thrown out easily at 2nd.
Anyway, partner and I were talking between innings, and I said they should have tagged R1, then touched the base for the DP. Partner says that R1 would be safe on 1st until BR touched 1st, but I thought she was forced to advance as soon as the ball was hit and was no longer safe on 1st.
Should be an easy one, but there you go.
