It didn't take long. The top of the 1st, I had the Orioles intentionally walk Leonys Martin. I had him steal 2nd. Safe. I had him steal 3rd. Safe. Then, to get runners on the corners, so we'd have a runner who wasn't forced, I had the Orioles intentionally walk Elvis Andrus.
Then, with Berkman at the plate, I had a run and hit. Berkman swung at a fastball and missed. Andrus was running and stole 2nd. Martin stayed at 3rd.

Thanks for confirming this. I thought this was the case but couldn't say for sure.
Edit
Logically send forced by definition must force all runners to go. Now does it work that way?
