I have a hard time awarding two outs on the play based on the replay reversal.

I can see reversing the safe call and declaring the runner from first (R3 in softball nomenclature) out. Yes, it is likely that F2 would have made a tag if he had realized he needed to, but it is also likely that R1 could have stopped and attempted to retreat to third since he is not now forced.

My opinion....declare R3 out, return R1 and R2 to third and second respectively, award BR first.
