Grasping at straws. 9-1-1 first paragraph would not score the run. The a. thru e. exceptions are not inclusive. 

9.1.1k does not apply as it does not have passing as the third out. 

Possibly Referee personnel were involved in publishing rules by topic and they do not want to be proven wrong?  But they were right until this year as the 2006 interp shows. 

Does whoever issued that bulletin understand that FED changed and is now in concert with OBR regarding passing during a HR?

I believe it's the PIAA who is basing their interpretation on the past and present CB plays. 

The bulletin appears to be the exact wording @lawump (I think it was him) used in an email to the NFHS, which was forwarded to my state interpreter. Go figure!?

PLAY: Bases loaded, with two outs. The ba er hits a home run, but R1 (on rst base) can’t nd the ball o the bat. The B/R runs hard out of the box, touches rst base, and then passes R1 who is s ll standing near rst base.

You pasted all this in rich text: all the ligatures have been deleted as special characters in the process.

If you wish to avoid this, I recommend pasting into some plain text app—I just use the URL bar of a spare browser window—prior to pasting in the forum. Just copy and paste (again) from there.

Sorry for the pasting error.  Here is the link to the bulletin.

PLAY: Bases loaded, with two outs. The batter hits a home run, but R1 (on 1st base) can’t find the ball off the bat. The B/R runs hard out of the box, touches 1st base, and then passes R1 who is still standing near 1st base. Everyone agrees that the B/R passing R1 constitutes the third out of the inning. Furthermore, everyone agrees that this is not a force out, nor an out against the B/R before he reached 1st base. Here is the issue: Some people argue that the other runners (R1, R2, R3) are allowed to score under the theory that the home run is a dead ball award. Others argue that this is a “timing play” with regard to determining if the run scores or not. Which is it? 
RULING: The NFHS is currently in the process of reviewing the play, but by all current rules, 3 runs score (every runner except the batter): 
1. 2018 NFHS Baseball Rule 9-1-1 (a through e).
2. 2018 NFHS Case Book Play 9.1.1 Situation K.
3. 2018 High School Baseball Rules By Topic Pages 145-148
4. NFHS Baseball Rules Interpretations 2006

No worries! I just assumed that you (or someone) would wonder what the hell happened to the text!
