I've seen two outs happen this way. You could have three.
Sacks juiced. a) B1 hits an infield fly (out 1). b) F6 loses ball in the atmosphere; the rock drops to the ground, fair and untouched. c) R2 stays put, and R1 passes him (out 2). d) 3B coacher grabs R3, who has strayed off the bag, and shoves him back to the sack (out 3).
I was doing a game where a, b and d actually occurred. Double play--no one touches the horsehide.
And a nice tension convention afterward.
