Another ERA question

Simply stated, would the run have scored without the benefit of the E6. Nope, thus UE run. Second run scored, thus BOTH UE.

JT-

Wouldn't the first run be earned? It scored on the infield single. The second run is definitely unearned as it happened as a result of the throwing error - but I would think that first was earned.

Runners on second and third, batter hits a dribbler to the short stop who make a errant throw too late to get the batter, single with a throwing error which allowed the runner from second, advancing to third, to advance to home. To add to the situation, the batter tries to advance to second and thanks to a good bounce off of the fence, the first baseman throws out the batter at second, out number three, runner from third did score before the tag.

Obrady, Good One----
The man that was on 3b will be an earned run because he would have scored on the single. I would score the man on second as unearned because he advanced from 3b to home because of the errant throw (E-6 ) and I would record the out at 2b as a 3-4 PO CS (caught stealing).

You had it right until you labelled it "caught stealing". The batter trying to advance from 1st to 2nd is simply out trying to advance, but it's not a steal attempt.

The other question to ask is whether the original post has the scoring correct. He scored the batter a hit and an error. A hit should only be scored if the batter would have been safe even with a proper play being made. If that was the case here, then the only reason there is an error is because the errant throw allowed the runner from 2nd to score. A throw that gets away is not an error unless it causes some harm.

Often people score hit + error in these situations when really it was an error all the way (no base hit involved). O'Brady, if a proper play on the grounder would've recorded the third out at 1st on the batter, then both runs would be unearned. But if it's really a hit AND an error, then only one run is unearned, as the runner scoring from third on the infield hit is earned.

I glad to see that I'm getting better at this. I score 3rd, earned, 2nd unearned.

I was seeing if any discussion of rebuilding the inning would cause any issues because the batter was thrown out trying to advance on an error.

In my opinion he didn't have a chance to throw the batter out and therefore it was a hit and an error.
