Bases loaded, 2 outs question

[Guest rb3]

Bases loaded, 2 outs.  Batter hits a sharp smash off first baseman's glove, eventually scored a hit.  First baseman scrambles to his feet, retrieves ball and fires home to catcher who tags runner for the third out (not a force out).  Question:  Does the batter still get credit for a hit if the runner is tagged out at home?

If it was the runner from third that was tagged out it was a forced runner and no hit. If it was the runner from 2B or 1B it's a hit.

Note that tagging a runner instead of the base is still a force out if the runner was forced to advance.
