Strike Three, Caught Stealing, Double Play

Question?

Duane Jones from Michigan asks:

Is a strike em out throw em out considered a double play?

Yes, it is considered a double play. This is because a double play is a play in which "two. . . players are put out between the time a pitch is delivered and the time the ball next becomes dead."
