1 out, R1. B2 hits fly to center, R1 breaks with hit. F8 catches fly for out, and throws to F3 to attempt to double up R1, who is returning quickly to 1B. Ball thrown goes out of play, field ump sends R1 to 3B (R1 properly retouches 1B). Coach thought rule had changed to only send R1 to 2B. I looked up in Rule 8.5, and it appears to me call was correct.

Any ideas where coach may have thought he read about this alleged "rule change"?

Ump was correct. And by now you should know that anytime the coach was wrong, it is because of a recent rule change (even in cases where the rule was never changed, or was changed before said coach was even born).

Speaking USSA the baserunner gets the orignal base that they're returning too + one.ASA it's strictly a 2 base award.
