1941 Tiger pitcher Al Benton becomes the only major leaguer to have two sacrifice bunts in one inning as 17 batters come to bat in the third frame of a 11-2 rout of the Indians.
SH in Baseball stands for "Sacrifice Hit" - also known as a Sacrifice Bunt. It is when a batter comes up with a runner or two on base and less than two outs, and intentionally bunts the ball in a way that the fielders have to get him out- which allows the other runners to move up a base or even score. The batter "sacrifices" himself to allow the other runners to advance.
You can have 3 sacrifice flies in an inning if one of the sacrifice flies included an error that prevented the team from recording an out. This is similar to getting 4 strikeouts in an inning, where a missed third strike allows one of the batters to reach base on the strikeout. There have been 4 times where a team had 3 sacrifice flies in one inning. Strangely two of those were by the Yankees in 2000, both with Andy Pettite pitching for the Yanks, and one by the Mets against the Yankees in 2004. The other time was by the White Sox in 1962. In that August 19 game Angel left fielder Ron Gant dropped Jorge Posada's fly ball with a runner on third. Posada was credited with a sacrifice fly and an RBI, and he reached base on Gant's error.
It is plural: one innings, two innings.
No. By definition it is not a sacrifice unless the batter is out. The correct answer is yes. The runner can reach base during a sacrifice on a throwing error or a fielders choice.
Alex Rodriguez of the Yankees on October 4, 2009 in the 6th inning against the Tampa Bay Rays. No Mets player has hit two home runs in one inning.
The pitcher is credited with a fraction that represents how many outs there were in the inning when they are relieved. If the pitcher is relieved is one out, they are credited woth 1/3 (one-third) of an inning. If the pitcher is relieved with two outs, they are credited with 2/3 (two-thirds) of an inning. A pitcher who starts the game and is relieved with one out in the seventh inning is credited with 6 1/3 innings pitched ... if relieved with two outs in the seventh inning is credited with 6 2/3 innings pitched. ... if relieved with no outs in the seventh inning is credited with 6 innings pitched.
No
That depends on if this is the top or the bottom of the inning. If it is the bottom then only one strike will do the trick, unless this batter gets a hit then we can't know the answer. If it is the top of the inning then we cannot know the answer.
he didn't sacrifice 2 sheep, he sacrificed 1 sheep and 1 child
New York Yankee great Alex Rodriguez hit two home runs in one inning. He accomplished this feat on September 5, 2007.
If the sacrifice is a cost, then no. That'd be like paying one mana, and claiming it can be used for two different one mana abilities. Each cost needs its own payment. Sometimes an effect triggers when something is sacrificed. In that case, one sacrifice will trigger all of them.
Official baseball rule 10.09 (a) Score a sacrifice bunt when, before two are out, the batter advances one or more runners with a bunt and is put out at first base, or would have been put out except for a fielding error. (b) Score a sacrifice bunt when, before two are out, the fielders handle a bunted ball without error in an unsuccessful attempt to put out a preceding runner advancing one base.
