I would make a 'juggling' signal and a safe sign on the first attempt at the force play. The position of the runner has no bearing on making this call in a force situation. Would you make an out call if the fielder had made the play?

You also make the call on the second play, 'safe, no tag', or whatever verbiage suits you.
