That's what we're here for.

Both of those statements would be correct. B2 (the batter-runner) is always forced to advance to 1B on a fair ball, even if it's over the fence.

Thanks
Correct and correct.

In the two situations you provide where the BR misses 2B, the key is rule 5-5-B-3:

No run shall be scored if the third out of the inning is the result of... a preceding runner is declared out on an appeal play.
You have preceding runners, and you have succeeding runners. A preceding runner is the one in front of you while you're running the bases. The succeeding runner is the one behind you. It's a reference to where they are relative to the appealed runner in the batting order.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
