Runner on second base. I sharply hit ball hits the runner while he is off the bag before it is touched by a fielder. The runner is out, but what is the statistical impact to the batter?
Scott... In the opinion of the scorer, if the ball was fieldable by a fielder then it would be a Fielders choice,(if the batter reaches first safely)if in the opinion of the scorer the ball would have gone through its a hit.
OBR makes that differentation for "interference with a fielder attempting to field a batted ball". But I believe that is for interfering with the fielder, not for being struck by the batted ball.
FED doesn't address it at all.
I'm pretty certain it is a base hit, with the SK's judgement not entering into the equation.
Thanks guys...It was a tough day at the park for our boys and with that play not really impacting the game (as you all know), I figured I would wait until later to determine the proper way to handle it for my own consumption.
