This is an appeal of a runner not retouching after a caught batted ball. If the run scored before the appeal at 1B, then the run counts. This is not a force play by definition, which is 'runners being forced to advance due to the batter becoming a runner. The runner originally on 1B is not forced back to 1B haha
