You make the call.

There's a runner on first, no outs. The batter hits a sharp one hopper to the first baseman. The runner on first, runs back to first to avoid being tagged. The first baseman steps on first base, before the batter reaches it, then tags the runner that was originally on first. Is that a double play?

Hmmm...he should've tagged the runner first, and then step on the base.

Ok...if the runner at 1st has a wooden leg, can he take off the leg, leave it on 1st and take as big a lead as he wants and not be out?

@BizSuitStacy Nope, you can't use any type of equipment to give you an advantage, other than a glove and bat. Catchers get violations called against them for using their mask in an attempt to stop a wild pitch.
