I had runners on 1st and 3rd, nobody out, and I get a Line Out Double Play 3-o B-O. What card reading gets you a line drive DP without it being a max, or triple play in this case?

forgive me if this is a simple question, but I cant figure it out.

Here's what happens when you get an lo max with two runners on base and nobody out:

1-7 lineout triple play
8-20 lineout double play, lead runner doubled off

This occurs in the Super Advanced version of the rules, which SOM365 uses:

Super-Advanced

(17.22) When this result occurs in a situation where a triple play could occur, the result is not an automatic triple play. Instead, roll the 20-sided die. If the roll is 1-7, it's a lineout/triple play. If the roll is 8-20, it's a lineout/double play, with the lead runner doubled off.

Thanks! I forgot about the super advanced rules.
