The umpire now rules B4 out.

B) F6 overthrows F3 and the ball deflects off the fence down the RF line. B4, seeing the bad throw before getting to 1B, heads to 2B but did not touch 1B on the way by. R1 scores on the play. The defense becomes aware that B4 missed 1B and now appeals by having F3 step on 1B while holding the ball.

The umpire now rules B4 out.

Does the run score?

Thanx.
No, not in either case.
