Then, during the pitcher's delivery and while the runner from second is attempting a steal of third, the first baseman dashes in, and intercepts the pitched ball before it reaches the batter. He turns, and fires a perfect throw to the third baseman, who easily tags the runner three feet in front of the bag. What is the official result of this play?
First time poster, this is beyond third world play, it is another dimension entirely. Batter awarded 1B, stealing runner awarded 3B.
