In MLB, when a double steal is attempted and one runner is thrown out (regarless of the number of existing outs) the second runner is not credited with a stolen base. When both steal successfully, 2 stolen bases are credited. Is this correct? Please say yes...I have $1 on the line! lol

You won your $1!

You guys, brian was being a smart a$$, meaning that as umpires, we don't care about Rule 10.

There's only 10 sections? No wonder why I can't find 11.03 to apply it liberally!
