Here is the scenario. Runners on first and third with two outs. As the pitcher makes a pick-off play at first, the runner on first heads to second. He gets into a rundown. During the rundown, the runner on third takes off and scores before the runner caught between first and second is tagged out. Does the runner on third get credit for a stotlen base?

Per the official rules as displayed below, I would say this was not a SB, but a FC with benefits...

10.07 STOLEN BASES AND CAUGHT STEALING
(d) When a double- or triple-steal is attempted and one runner is thrown out before reaching and holding the base such runner is attempting to steal, no other runner shall be credited with a stolen base.
