What happened to R1 and R2 as R3 attempted to steal? Was this a triple steal?

Didn't notice this (and I don't think anybody else did)... but let's suppose it was actually a triple steal and that the runner from third scored before the tag at 2nd. Now the strikeout is taking a run off the board. But let's suppose that the ball was in the dirt and the runner from home was taking off toward first but stopped going to first when the out was called.

R1 and R2 were out on prior plays given that this play started with 2 outs.

Noticed but ignored for the sake of fewer comments.
