[B]R1 on 1st no outs, B2 hits short pop fly to left that is caught by F7, R1 has gone half way and starts retreating to 1st on the catch F7 throws to 1st but a wild throw goes DBT.


R1 awarded 3rd two bases on over throw or 2nd?


Thanks

Don,

All runners will be awarded two bases, and the award
will be governed by the positions of the runners when the
ball left the fielder's hand. Runners may return to
touch a missed base or base left too soon. If two runners
are between the same bases, the award is based on the
position of the lead runner. [ASA Rule 8 Sec. 6 G. Effect.]
