Runner on third and no out. Batter hits sharp liner between second and short, second baseman dives and throws ball home, that runner is safe by a wide margin, the runner is safe at first. Hit or fielders choice? Runner at first and third 2 out, batter hits ball sharply down 3rd baseline third baseman throws to second all runners safe, runner from 3rd scores . Hit or fielders choice?

Re: second baseman dives and throws
This will likely be a judgment call by the scorekeeper. Would the batter have likely been out at first had the defense made that play? If yes, then I would score as a FC even though a preceding runner was not put out. If the ball is hard hit and it is not certain that the batter would have been out, I would probably score a hit, giving the benefit of a doubt to the batter.
From NFCA Fastpitch scoring rules (baseball is usually the same)
Credit a fielder's choice
3 when a ball is put in play where a play is made on any lead runner and an out
occurs, or an out would have occurred had no error taken place, or the runner is
safe, but the batter would have been out had the initial play been made at first,
