Because there are situations when a run is scored and no one gets credit for an RBI. Some examples are: 1) Runner scores on a wild pitch, passed ball, or balk. 2) Runner scores on a double play. 3) Runner scores because of an defensive error.
Yes
No, a runner will not earn a run if scored off an error.
Depends on what happened in the inning prior to and after the batter is hit. Assuming that no errors or passed balls occur, the run will be scored an earned run. If the inning is extended by an error, or the runner scores because of an error or passed ball, the run would be unearned.
No...a fielding error that allows the runner to get on base and that runner scores is not an earned run and does not count against earned run average.
The umpire. If the runner crosses the plate before a tag for the 3rd out is applied, then the run scores. On a force out, no run scores regardless of the timing.
Batter is safe at first base, runner on third scores a run.
cuz they left that man on
No, if the hitter eventually scores in that inning, it would not be an earned run.
The run would not count since the fielder tagged a runner out during the batter's run to 1st base. It makes no difference where the runner who was on 3rd base is at.
No the run does not count. An out at any base would be a force out and no runs can score, If the runner scored and the third out is made because a runner is called out on an appeal play such as failure to retouch on a fly ball out or a runner missing a base the run would count
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...
