Scorekeeping Question - Earned Runs/ E-5?

The Great One 21100+ posts

Situation: E-5 would have been the first out of the game. The pitcher gets the next two batters out. Then the floodgates open with 2 walks, hit batter, and several hits. Given the E-5, and that the next two batters were outs. Would all of the runs then be unearned? Or would just the batter who reached on the E-5 count as the unearned run?

Thanks greatly for your advice!

All runs would be unearned to the team and to the starting pitcher. However if a reliever comes in, he could conceivably have earned runs charged to him in that inning, though not to the team.
