| With no outs, R1 on first base and B2 scheduled to bat, B4 comes to bat instead and grounds into a double play. Before the next batter steps into the batter’s box, the defense appeals that B4 batted out of order. The umpire rules that the double play stands and that B2 is also declared out for the third out of the inning. Triple Play? True of False? Explain.

| False: No Double play and No triple play. But the out recorded at second base (R1)remains and B2 is recorded as an out. ( so still 2 outs , but not a double play)
B3 is the next batter with two outs. and B4 will follow in the correct order
