This is an example of the beauty of baseball: Bruntlett ends Phils win with solo triple play.
Wow, wow, wow. I wish I had seen it when it happened, but at least there's YouTube:
It would be fun figuring out how to score this play. I'm guessing an L4 for the batter, an a CS for both of the baserunners. Anyone know a more correct way?

- Bruntlett catches the batted ball before it hits the ground, causing the batter to be out.
- The baserunner who was on 2nd was on his way to 3rd, so when Bruntlett steps on 2nd base before the baserunner returned to tag up, that baserunner was out.
- The baserunner who was on 1st was on his way to 2nd, and Bruntlett managed to tag him out before the baserunner became safe by standing on any base.

The Reisner and Project Scorecard people have some ideas, but they're long strings of code that seem more suited to computer arrays than a baseball scorecard.
I think the jury's out.

I can see 4U (as opposed to my original thought of CS (caught stealing)) for the base runner on first who got tagged out, with the line halfway between 1st and 2nd. Maybe a 4U for the base runner on 2nd, too.
