On a double steal, with no runners caught stealing, are both baserunners credited with a steal or does the lead runner get a steal and the trail runner get "defensive indifference"?
If both get a steal, is the catcher penalized by two steals?
What if one runner is caught? Does the catcher get a Caught Stealing and a Stolen Base against?
On a successful double steal, both runners are credited with a stolen base.
Two stolen bases against, is two stolen bases against.
If one runner is caught, there is a caught stealing and fielder's choice allowing the other runner to advance. You don't credit a trailing (or leading) runner with a stolen base if another runner is caught stealing on the same play.
