Reply to "batter hits runner with ball"

I don't think it is (I always get in trouble with this one).

For example, R1 & R3 less than two outs. Fly ball hit to the OF, who uncorks a high throw home. R3 holds, but R1 goes to second. I would score a "fielder's choice" in allowing R1 to go to second.

No error, just a "choice" of throwing home versus throwing to second to hold the runner.

Some people draw a line and say "advanced on the throw", which is OK too but technically they advanced on a fielder's choice.
