How can there be an obvious double play on a TSNC? Only thing I a can think of right now is a steal of Home by R3 or a missed suicide squeeze with 2 strikes on the batter
I believe 3FG was referring to the OP in which the bases were loaded.
Step on the plate and throw to first. Double play.
Why would you need a DP in that sitch; there are two out!
