Reply to "Pop fly lost in sun- Error/hit??"

1..An error is NEVER given on a ball lost in the Sun, especially if it was not touched. Whether the fielder wore sunglasses or not, has no bearing. NO ERROR.

2..If the ball hit the shinguards 6" off the ground, it was blockable, PASSED BALL. A passed ball that leads to a run is NOT an earned run.

p.s. It's not a "dropped 3rd strike. It's an uncaught 3rd strike. "Dropped" means the catcher could not hold the pitch in his hand or mitt. A 3rd strike not caught could also be a wild pitch, which would count as an earned run.
