Has anyone else ever gotten the "runner is thrown-out at second trying to stretch a double into a triple" play in the PbP? Gotten that one twice in about 100 games.

I always thought it should say something like "the throw from 'outfielder' beats the runner to 3rd and 'baserunner' is caught in no-man's land. 'baserunner' hits the brakes and dives back to 2nd only to be tagged out by '2nd basemen'."

Just doesn't sound right when the guy is out at second on a failed stretched double.

:edited to correct mistake of using <> symbols
