Even more interestingly, as stated above, if the fielder drops it and the runner tags & scores (and the batter makes it to 1st) the batter still gets credited with a sac fly. So in that scenario did he reach via a sac fly (0 for 0) and there was an error on the play ... or did he reach by error (0 for 1) but he gets credited with the sac fly? Sounds nitpicky, but statsitcially it could make a difference in BA and OBP. And if he then scores, is his run earned or unearned?

So what's the answer to the original question? I thought it was yes ... now I'm not so sure.

Comments from others?

I'm pretty sure that if the fielder drops the ball on what would otherwise have been a sac fly, then the batter gets credited with a sac fly (therefore no AB) and reaches base on an error. I don't think it's an either/or question. I think he can get both the sac fly and reach base on the error.
