Double (baseball)

Not to be confused with double play or doubleheader (baseball).
Tris Speaker, who played from 1907 to 1928, hit the most career doubles of anyone in Major League Baseball history, 792.

In baseball, a double is the act of a batter striking the pitched ball and safely reaching second base without being called out by the umpire, without the benefit of a fielder's misplay (see error) or another runner being put out on a fielder's choice. A double is a type of hit (the others being the single, triple and home run) and is sometimes called a "two-bagger" or "two-base hit".[1] For statistical and scorekeeping purposes it is denoted by 2B.[2][3]
