Not necessarily, as Rich pointed out. And I'm sure there are some baseball umpires who don't correctly award bases on a ball thrown out of play.

PLAY: R1 gets picked off, a rundown ensues, and as R1 is diving headfirst back toward first base, F4's throw hits him and ricochets into the dugout.

I'll bet there are many umpires who would only award R1 second base.
