Ok, I'm confused.

Let me give an example to help me.

R1 on second, stealing on the pitch. B2 swings and hits catchers mitt. (1)catcher picks up ball and attempts to throw out R1 and is called (a)out. (b) safe.

(2) Same situation: No throw is made.

In 1-a, R1 would go back to second, and B2 would get 1st?

In 1 b, Coach may elect to keep R1 on third and B2 still bats with a no pitch? Or,elect to put R1 back to 2nd and B2 to 1st? Or, would R1 stay at third since he was stealing, and B2 still goes to 1st?

Confused yet?

And in 2, there is no play, so where are players put on bases?

In all those plays, R1 (sic) is placed at third and the batter at first.
