    If there are two base runners on first and third and the first base runner takes second, is that considered a stolen base, even though there is a man at third?

    		Being from UK and into cricket and soccer and not understanding baseball rules I would hazard a guess at yes if you use the definition - 'Stolen Base'= Successfully advancing a base between pitches without the batter hitting the ball or getting a base on balls. - taken from http://www.isport.com/sport_info/bas_glos.htm

    		Thank you for your replies. I was under the impression that it did count as a stolen base.

    One of the roles of the third base coach is to tell the runner to stop running or to proceed around third base and try to score. Quite often runners will ignore the coach's advice to stop running and try to score regardless. Could a player get in trouble with his manager for doing this?

    The Los Angeles Dodgers had the same starting infield for about eight years (not every day but they were the starters.) Can you name all four, first base, second base, shortstop and third base?

    What am I describing? A statue that has three different parts, a square base, a torso, and a head. The base and torso have a hole in the middle of them, vertically. The head has a long rod attached to it, so it goes through the torso and base.
