Can there be an earned run on an infield single if the runner scores from second base?

In my opinion, if the pitcher who is responsible for the batter being on second base to begin with, then I believe it is an earned run...

Is it scored as a fielders choice if the infield attempt to throw the runner at second out is unsuccessful?
Nope. It's a stolen base.
Is a running out at second base on a infield fly rule if the ball hits the runner while standing on the base?
No, as long as he is on the base he is safe
What happens when a fly ball hit to the first baseman is dropped with a runner on first base?
Nothing in your situation. Only maybe if there is less than two outs and at least another runner on second. If there is less than two outs, the infield fly rule applies. The runner should stay on first base. The batsman would be out anyway. That is the purpose of the infield fly rule. It was put in when Ty Cobb had a similar situation. He was playing short stop. There were runners on first and second. A batter hit a pop up toward him. He yelled, "I got it." The runners stayed on first and second. He dropped the ball. Tagged the runner on second. Stepped on the base, and threw the ball to first for a triple play. Then baseball put in the infield fly rule. If there is a popup in the infield with zero or 1 outs, and runners on base that would be forced out, the batter is out and the runner should not advance.
With runners on first and second how can a triple play occur without the fielder touching the ball and to which mlb team has this occured?
The batter hits a pop-fly making him out due to the infield fly rule. The runner on first passes the runner on second and the ball hits the runner on second. I dont know who it happened to.
If you have a runner on first and a runner on third and the runner on first attempts to steal second at the same time the runner on third takes off and scores does the batter get the RBI?
ed Parker isn't
If you hit a very deep fly ball and a runner on second base tags and scores from second is it a sacrifice fly?
yaa
After an infield single and a wild throw can the runner be tagged out for attempting to go to second without crossing the first base line?
No. If the runner doesn't cross the first base/right field line they cannot be considered attempting to go to second base.
How can a triple play occur without any fielder touching the ball after it leaves the pitcher's hand?
Runners on first and second. Batter pops it up and is out due to the infield fly rule. The runner on first passes the runner on second and is out. The remaining runner is hit by the pop fly. Unassisted triple play.
Does a sacrifice fly that advances a runner from second to third count as an at bat?
A fly ball that advances a runner from second to third is not counted as a sacrifice fly, and it does count as an at bat. Unless a runner scores on a fly ball, the batter is charged with an at bat.
If a runner is on third base with one out and you hit a grounder to second why are you charged with an at-bat if the runner scores?
The fielder made a decision to throw the batter out at first instead of throwing the runner out at home. This is considered a fielders choice.
What is the call if you have runners on second and third with one out and a fly ball is hit to the outfield and is caught. The runner on third base tags up and scores. The runner on second base does n?
It's a sacrifice fly. The batter is credited with an RBI, and the at-bat does not count against his batting average. The runner on second is inconsequential to the scoring decision.
Hit to right side go to third from second base?
I think this question is referring to hitting behind a baserunner to advance them? With a runner on second base if a hitter can hit the ball on the ground to the right side of the infield the runner on second base should be able to advance to third because the obvious play is to first for the out. Like a sacrifice, but not entirely, because there is a chance for a basehit.
