What is the most steals a team can get in an inning without scoring a run?

Ten - First batter reaches steals two bases tagged out at plate. Second batter does the same. Third batter steals two bases and fourth batter steals one. Ten is the answer but alternatively, first batter gets on and steals two bases (2). Next batter reaches first and steals second (3). Third batter reaches first and now with three runners on each base a triple steal could be executed with the 3rd base runner being tagged out (5). Repeat last sentence, (7). Then the fifth batter gets walked, and a triple steal is attempted. The runner from third gets caught in a rundown. The runner from second steals third (8). The runner from first steals second and third (10). Then one of the three runners now between third and home gets tagged out before the lead runner can score.


What two ways can a batter on a rounders team can be out?

In rounders, a batter can be out in several ways, but two common methods are being caught out and being run out. A batter is caught out if a fielder catches the ball directly after it has been hit, before it touches the ground. They can be run out if a fielder hits the rounders post with the ball while the batter is outside the designated area, preventing them from reaching safety.
