Baseball scoring decisions
Double play ball, third basemen steps on third forcing the runner, throws to first, the throw hits the first basemen square in the letters and has the runner beat by 8 feet. First basemend drops the ball and the runner is safe. Is this an error?
Or is there never an error on the backend of a double play? This happened to Derek Lee yesterday and it wasn't ruled an error. |

Re: Baseball scoring decisions
Never an error. Scoring decisions cannot assume a double play.

Re: Baseball scoring decisions
You can never assume a double play, so no error. I know sometimes it seems retarded, but that's the way it is.

I guess they do it to take the subjective element out of it, ie "I think he would have been safe so it's an error." Then again, most error scoring is subjective, so it's a stupid rule.
But a rule nonetheless. |

Re: Baseball scoring decisions
A little off topic, but you guys seem to know your scoring:
Lets say there's and error with 2 outs in the inning. If the next guy up hits a homer how many earned runs (if any) is that for the pitcher? |
