No way this DP combo ever happens with 1st & 3rd and less than two outs in any higher level competition. If the runner on 3rd is doing his job, even if he gets tagged out, the catcher shouldn't be left standing or in any position to make a throw to first. At the very least he should get caught in a rundown to allow the other runners to advance as far as possible.
