Looking for NFHS rule interpretation .Situation :One out ,runners on first and third base . Batter hits fly ball to right field which is caught. Runner on third tags legally and scores. runner on first does not tag legally on tries to get back to first base and is thrown out before he gets back to first for the third out. runner on third clearly touches home well before runner at first is called out. Is this a timing play or a force out at first base after fly ball is caught by right fielder. does run count ? To me the runner from first needs time to get back to first so Im thinking its a timing play and not a force out play. Was is the correct ruling on play? need help
