If a batter hits a home run, he can automatically run around all the bases and the team gets a point. If there are any runners already on the bases, then they count as points too. This is why you can have two-run home runs and 3-run home runs. If the bases are loaded, and the player at bat hits a home run, then the team gets four points. This is called a grand slam.

If a batter hits a home run it goes in his stats as a home run and an rbi but does it also go in his stat as a run scored?
Yes, every time the player "touches home plate", he gets a run scored in his stats.
If a batter hits a home run yet falls over dead before touching home plate is it still a home run?
Yes it is. In the event a hitter cannot complete his home run trot, a pinch runner can be inserted for him.
Does a stolen home plate count as an rbi?

How many hits can you get in one half inning without scoring a run?
My son heard me read this question out loud and immediately piped up with six. Then he said five and went back to say six again. He is not 100% certain, but would love to hear from others on what they think is the correct answer. OK, Crystal. My pipes are warmed up and ready to go. The answer would be 6 and here is one scenario: First batter hits a triple and is thrown out at the plate trying for an inside the park home run. No runners on and one out. Second batter hits a triple and is thrown out at the plate trying for an inside the park home run. No runners on and two outs. Third batter hits a single. Runner on first and two outs. Fourth batter hits a single. Runners on first and second and two outs. Fifth batter hits a single. Bases loaded and two outs. Sixth batter hits a ball that strikes one of the runners. The runner is declared out and the batter is credited with a single. Six hits, no runs.
