Several years ago in a high school game we were the visiting team up 3 - 2 in the bottom of the seventh against one of the best teams in our area. Runners on first and second with no outs. We were on the ropes and I was out of pitching and this game was probably not going to extra innings based on the way the first two batters hit the ball.

Runners take off on steal, line drive right where the second baseman was covering on the steal. In the matter of two steps he caught the line drive (first out) tagged the runner (second out) and ran across second (third out).

We win.
