HR single?

At a HS game a batter hits a high flyball homerun that dropped over the fence. After rounding first base, batter passes runner who went back to first base and was waiting in case the fly ball was caught. Umpires called batter out. Two runs scored on the play. What's the official ruling?

How would this be scored.

I scored it as a 2 RBI single and credited the first baseman with the out since he was the closest defender, with notation of batter passing the runner.

Would this be the best way to score this?

Jim W. is correct. Score a single and put-out to the first baseman. Give the hitter 2 RBI, then strongly suggest he not watch the ball, but rather pay closer attention to the runner in front of him.

Probably won't do that again, though...
