Where do you put the runners?

Because of the fact..."glances off his shoulder.." I would go with:
8.5.G.
EXCEPTION
1. When a fielder loses possession of the ball, and the ball leaves live ball territory or becomes blocked.
EFFECT Each runner is awarded one base from the last base touched at the time the ball entered dead territory or becomes blocked.

Runner on 2B gets home. BR gets 2B.

I know its not a perfect fit as I'm taking "glances off his shoulder" to be the same as loosing possession, and the sitch clearly indicates there was never any possession of the ball on the part of the fielder.
