Explanation

A triple play can occur on a single pitch if the ball is hit sharply as a line drive. The fielder catches it for out #1, then throws to a base to double off a runner who left early (out #2), and that throw is relayed to another base to catch a third runner off base (out #3). This rare play requires precise timing and positioning.
