In baseball, a "double-decision" refers to a play in which the umpire must make two separate judgments in quick succession. This typically occurs when a baserunner is caught in a rundown between two bases, and both the runner and the fielder attempting to make the tag are moving quickly.
In this situation, the umpire must make two decisions in rapid succession: first, whether the runner is out or safe at the initial base, and then whether the runner is out or safe at the second base. Making two judgments in such a short amount of time can be challenging for umpires, and the term "double-decision" is used to describe this type of play.
