Seems to me 7.07 covers it. Score R3, R2 to 3b, BR to 1b.

Batter hitting a HR in a squeeze play situation is a 3rd world play and umpires might use 9.01c to permit the HR to stand. Just sayin..

This is why NFHS Rules make this play easy. The ball becomes immediately when the Pitcheer balked. Only one thing for the umpires to do but enforce the balk.

7.07 isn't only about squeeze plays. It also calls for an immediate dead ball if R3 is attempting a straight steal of home. So the HR would not be allowed to stand.
