Camron, Unfortunately in his write-up, BillyMac said the runners were on first AND third. Hence Bob correctly points out that the fielder stepping on second after catching the ball is of no consequence.

An oopsy in typing which I have experienced many a time myself and I'm sure I will in the future.....

You are correct. I, misread it, perhaps assuming the play as I expected it to be. I'm sure one of his base references was a typo. Whether 1st and 3rd with tags on 1st and 3rd or 1st and 2nd with tags on each, the point of the story is the same.
