I have seen a few almost triple plays, but to date only 1 complete one and it involved my daughters high school team.
They were playing in a tournament against a team from Texas. Her team was at bat in the top of the 1st inning, and the pitcher from Texas had walked the bases loaded with no outs. #4 batter smashes a waist high pitch straight back at the pitcher who just manages to just barely tip the ball with her glove. Runners all stopped on the initial touch of the ball, but when it ricocheted off the glove they were all on the move again. Short stop who was playing deep for some reason dives into the infield and catches the ball just before it hits the ground, then proceeds to turn 6-4-3 for the 2nd and 3rd outs.
