Another strange double play

Bases loaded, one out. Ground ball to 3rd baseman, he steps on 3rd base forcing out the runner from 2nd, then throws to first base and gets the batter out. Can't seem to show this in the correct order.

Thanks.

Then you are probably doing it right...order will not be correct but all stats will be:

swipe out
5-3 ground out
what happend to runner at 3rd? run not scored
what happened to runner at second? out, double play.

Similar question. Who gets credit for the double play?

In our situation, girl on 1st, 1 out. Hard grounder to second, player tags out runner from first, then throws out batter at first. If I do what you suggest (ground out 4-3, then double play), doesn't first base then get the credit for the defensive play instead of second base?

In this case:

Out
Ground Out
4-4-3
What happened to runner?
Out
Second
Double Play

2B gets PO, Assist and DP
1B gets PO and DP

Doing 4-4-3 as opposed to 4-3 gives the 2B both an assist and PO.
All players involved in the play get credit for DP.
