While I understand that this rule only applies in NFHS Baseball, how can we ignore the fact the F6, while in possesion of a live ball touched second base before R3 touched second base. That seems like a force play to me if there ever was one: If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck.

In ASA, and I believe it is the same in NFHS (Roger?), a runner is considered to have touched any base s/he has passed. This, in effect, eliminates the force out until properly appealed.

Okay, that sounds logical. Thanks for the clarification.
