| Runner on first (R1), and batter (B1) hits a grounder to the deep hole at short stop. Short Stop bobbles the ball and then throws to first and the ball goes out of play. At the time of the throw, B1 had already crossed first. R1 had slipped and fallen, and had not yet touched second when the SS threw the ball. Where do you put (award) the runners?
