In my opinion I would not call a double steal in this situation for 2 reasons: 1. For the runner on second to advance to third on this play is very low and will most likely get thrown out. 2. The first two runners have gotten on base safely, having the start of a rally. Most likely the pitcher is struggling and it is very likely that runs will be scored. If a runner is to get caught stealing it could kill the rally and have a quick ending to the inning. Although it is suggested to not double steal in this situation it is also determind by the batter and his abilities and the runner's spead.

It is where there is one-two runners aboard the bases (probably a runner at first base or two runners at first and second base) and a baseball player hits the ball within the infield and gets two of the runners out (depending on who was on what bases) and then there is two outs from that play!

What is it called when three runners get out in one play?

The rare act of making three outs in one continuous play is called a triple play. There are many ways a triple play can be performed; most of them are done with runners on first and second base. Typically, a ball hit to the shortstop or third baseman is fielded, the runner heading to third is forced out or tagged out, the ball is thrown to second base for a force play, and then finally to first to throw out the batter. Another common sequence (to the extent such plays can be called common) is a line drive to the shortstop or second baseman that is caught without the runners noticing or after they have taken large leads (as in the case of a hit and run), the runners then being forced or tagged out when they fail to tag up.

What is it called if a batter hits and reaches second base?

If the player gets to second base on his hit, it is a double. If a player is on first base and goes to second base on a pitch during another player's at bat, it is called stealing second base.

Can a runner score on a dead ball?

technically, no, that's why it is called a dead ball, all runners go back to the bag they were at before the play started. unless it is a ground rule double, however, then the runner gets two bases from where he started when the play began. so if the player began on second, he can score.
