I did it in high school and later reprised the role in college. Use to have the whole thing memorized.

You're right about R1 on first Steve...unless it's fed where it can be R2, or R3 as well.

I had a 3-2-6 Double Play this year.

One out. Bases loaded. Low line drive to the 1ST baseman. It popped out of his glove and all runners froze. I was the BU and said NO! and made a safe signal.

He obviously did not drop it on purpose because he had no idea what to do with it. The smart play would have been to tag R1 (who had jumped BACK to 1st base when the ball hit the ground) and then tag first base.

Well, he threw home and then the catcher threw to SS to force R1 who was STILL standing on first base.

The coach came out to talk to me. He said something very confusing about the force being lifted after the force play at the plate. I tried not to laugh and said "Coach, if the batter ain't out and the runner on first is allowed to stay, we would have quite an interesting pickoff play on the next pitch. He stared at me for a second and cracked up laughing, patted me on the back and jogged back to the dugout.

VERY odd play.

Joe

I've seen Bud wearing a St. Louis Wolves uniform. They did this routine for many years so there's likely to be other correct answers.
