For those freshman parents w/ pitchers who "follow" their son's ERA too religiously - be prepared... The statistician's favor the hitters - what you may call an error (drop between 2B/RF) is a *HIT*  and that throw by the SS->1B that is late because it hits the ground is an "Infield single to SS" ...  My favorite was BUNT single to pitcher and 2 runs scored because the 1b-man muffed the catch and the next throw.  I've seen the CF drop 2 balls in the same inning and both be called hits. Depends entirely on home scorekeeper who in some cases is not as baseball savvy as they should be. College ERA's must be taken with a very large grain of salt.

Amen to this. Some of the things ruled hits are pretty amazing actually
