Whats the call

situation. . .ASA Mens SP

R1 and 3rd, R2 at 1st. . . . 1B playing behind the bag and just over R2's right shoulder

Lefty batter, laces a line drive (i mean this play was bang bang). . . .. . . .R1 takes off for home

R2 takes the linedrive (in air) right off his shoulder after trying to get out of the way. . .all the time R2 IS in contact with the bag. Ball ricochets off his shoulder, over the Right field fence and out of play. At the time the ball hit the runner, ball was fair

I know that R1 is not out - 8.8.M (contrary to the defensive teams plea's and arguements)

However, here comes the question on what to do next.

I decided to put the BR on 1st, R2 on 2nd and scored R1 from 3rd.

After the game, i thought, what if the ball richoched off the bag and out of bounds, that would be a dead ball, GRD. . .so I think that BR on 2B and R2 on 3rd (scoring R1) would be the correct call.

Thoughts?

Is there anything in the rules about a ball hitting a player, not touched by a defensive player and going out of play??
