Triple play on a batted ball not touched by a fielder!

Fair dead ball territory could be either a ball that bounced over an outfield fence or that was a slicing ball down the line, hit in fair territory, but due to the spin rolled or bounced into dead ball territory.

I could see this situation.

Batter uses an illegal bat to hit a ball that bounces over the fence. During the running of the bases R2 (on second) passes R3 and R1 passes R2 and or R3 before the ball bounces over the fence.
