Have you ever witnessed a no-hitter? In the park, preferably, but TV or radio will do.?
Yes, in the event of a double steal they both get credit for a steal. if one guy gets thrown out he is caught stealing but the guy who is safe is credited with a stolen base.i am positive of this, i am an umpire and a baseball traditionalist. I'm not a nerd but have read the 2007 baseball rules book
Is the MLB.TV thing on MLB.com worth buying?
Yeah, the other guy gets credit for a stolen base.Absolutely, if you're safe...you're safe... it's a steal for you. as for the one who didn't make it... well, at least you got one out of the deal. Then, I guess it would change from double steal to attempted double steal... But, the runner who is safe still gets credit for the swipe.

Angels did it against the Indians yesterday. With Jose Molina, a slow catcher on third and a faster runner on first, they sent the guy on first, the catcher threw, too late to second, and as the throw went to second, Molina took off for home, and made it. It is an exciting and very ballsy move.When a reliever comes into the game.?
Yes thats why its called a double stealHow do you slide on the inside of the base?
Yes-- Unless the runner who is outrepresents the 3rd out of the inning.
Actually, the answer is no. It is the same is if they attempt to turn a double play and the lead runner is retired and the other runner is safe. The safe runner is not credited with a hit but rather a fielder's choice. The same rule applies for the double steal even if the safe runner were to steal home. If there are less than two outs, the run would count, but he/she would score on a fielder's choice.
I have had this happen many times during the games that I umpire.
It's only a double steal (or a triple steal) if both (or all) runners are safe. If one is tagged out, the runner(s) who moved up successfully has (have) done so on a fielder's choice.
It's 10.07(d) of the rulebook.

The answer is no. If there is a runner on first and second and they both steal, the runner at third could be safe or out, but the runner at second does not get credit for the steal.More Questions & Answers...
