2. Aren't you supposed to put the ball in play on the first base side if the player on second is trying to move to third. Just guessing the game situation makes this a picture of note. Trying to visualize the rest of the players in their dance.

3. Out or safe at third? The throw is to the wrong side of the bag, but it looks like he's already caught it, and just has to do a convincing sweep-tag to get the out.

DEVIL RAYS 4TH: Wigginton singled to left; Wigginton stole second; On a bunt Norton reached on a fielder's choice [Wigginton out at third (pitcher to third)];
I think I was at that game. A's lost 3-2.
