No outs, bottom of last inning with tied score. Runners on 1st and 2nd. Batter hits ball to fence. R2 scores but misses 3rd base. R1 sees this and also scores. On appeal (R2 out) does R1 scoring still count or is it a dead ball when R2 scored the winning (walkoff) run and R1 is sent back to 3rd base?
Similar question if R1 did not try to score and was tagged out after R2 crossed plate (but later out on appeal). Does out count on R1?

Close Call Sports analyzed an MLB play about a continuous action play that got a third and a fourth out--the question was when does a half-inning end? The article was written in July 2018 and the titl

What's interesting about this OP is R2 is the game winning run. The game ends at that point. The chances of R1 being that aware, and continuing to run are slim, and I'm not sure it's even a live ball

Why would it be? The "end of the game" is not listed under events that make the ball Dead. So what makes the ball dead? Did it go out of play? Was there a call of "Time" by an umpire, and base awards
