From my readings on this site it seems that in general if an out is made on a play there cannot be an error. Don't know if my understanding is correct or not.
What about this?
2 outs, runners on 2nd and 3rd. Routine ground ball hit to 3rd baseman. 3rd baseman muffs the ball and has some trouble picking it up. As a result he is unable to make the throw to 1st. However the runner on 2nd runs and as a result the 3rd baseman is able to tag him out. In the meantime the runner on 3rd was able to score before the tag was made. A clean play of the ball and no run would have scored. Error or not?
Thanks
