Fielder has the right to occupy the territory necessary to field the ball, runner must give right of way to the fielder. In this case, runner is out.
Its basically the same thing as being tagged. If he has the ball still in his possesion and the runner collides. Its an out. Same concept when a runner is running home and the catcher is attempting a tag out because they are off the plate. Collisions happen. But if the ball is in a glove... the collision is also considered an out.
For purposes of scoring, baseball players are listed as: (1) The pitcher; (2) The catcher; (3) The first baseman; (4) The second baseman; (5) The third baseman; (6) The shortstop; (7) The left fielder; (8) The center fielder; and (9) The right fielder. As a result, a 4-6-3 double play is started by the second baseman, who flips a ground ball to the shortstop, who then throws the ball to first base.
This may be a shorthand way of stating that a batter hit a fly ball to the shortstop. In baseball scoring (on scorecards), the abbreviation for the shortstop is "6".
Probably not...but, it really depends on the Official Scorers decision. Was the fielder bobbling the ball when he ran into the wall? Did crashing into the wall actually cause the fielder to drop the ball? Before a scorer can make such a call, he must witness the event...this is true on almost all scoring decisions.
If the ball gets passed the fielder then its scored as a hit . If the fielder gets hit or hits the ball the scoring tends to be a hit but it can be called an error ... The scoring in a Baseball game is up to the home Field score keeper ...
"A" is the abbreviation for an "Assist", a scoring record of a fielder who throws out a runner, such as a ground ball to short and the batter is thrown out at first, the shortstop is credited with an Assist. Two "Assist" may sometimes be credited, such as when the ball is hit to the outfield, the outfielder may throw to another fielder who then throws the baserunner out. In that case both players involved in throwing out the runner is credited with an "Assist".
In boxing scoring criteria, "SD" stands for "Split Decision." It means that the judges' scores are not unanimous, with some judges scoring the fight in favor of one boxer and others scoring it in favor of the other.

Keeping ScoreEach position is assigned a number for scoring purpose. 1- Pitcher 2- Catcher 3- First Baseman 4- Second Baseman 5- Third Baseman 6-Short Stop 7- Left Fielder 8- Center Fielder 9- Right Fielder . If a player is forced out at second or third the number would be 4 or 5 depending on the base and the player that made the put out. In the mix any assist by another player is recorded as well. For example: the shortstop fields the ball throws to the second baseman for the force out at second it is scored 6-4
Number are assigned to each position for the purpose of scoring the game. Numbers are used as a kind of "shorthand" or abbreviation. The numbers assigned are as follows: # Pitcher # Catcher # First Baseman # Second Baseman # Third Baseman # Short Stop # Left Fielder # Center Fielder # Right FielderFor example: If the baseball is hit to the Left fielder and he catch's the ball for a putout the play is scored 7. A double play shortstop to the second baseman to the first baseman is scored 6-4-3 DP
Only if that out brings a run home. A sacrifice is when a batter gets out in order to bring a runner home to score. Let's make up some kind of example. Let's say runners are on 1st and 3rd with no outs and the pitch is chopped over the pitcher's head toward the shortstop. It's a pretty slow chop and the shortstop's only option is to try for the 6-4-3 double play and let the runner score from 3rd. Runner at second is out, but the relay to 1st isn't in time. That becomes a fielder's choice and a sacrifice. A fielder's choice is intended to get any other runner out other than getting the sure out at 1st. In many instances, it's a force out to another base, meaning the batter really didn't sacrifice anything, because he's on base, but the runner who would have been in scoring position is out.
It comes from the fact that many years ago, the shortstop could be a fourth outfielder just as easily as being a fourth infielder. Basically it was a "rover" position, so when they put the numbers in for scoring, they simply went around the bases (3-1st, 4-2nd, 5-3rd) and then added the shortstop (6) before going to the outfielders (7-LF, 8-CF, 9-RF).
