Dakota: "Has anyone seen a triple play in fast pitch NOT involving a caught fly, but 3 force outs off of an infield grounder? It'd be tough with the short base lines. I've not seen one. Double plays are rare enough."

Actually, yes. And I posted it here just a month ago.

"First time ever for me. Women's FP, top of 1st, bases loaded, no outs - and I am thinking that this may be one long ballgame. (First game had a couple Div 1 pitchers locked in a 1-0 battle and was fun - and quick.)

Anyway - hard ball to F5, to F2 and I've got the 1st out. To F3 and partner has second out. Runner from second tries to catch defense napping and comes home and I have the 3rd out! From bases loaded to side out - just like that."


Two force outs and a tag - close enough?
