What Constitutes An Error In Baseball
is determining if an error should be charged on a play or not. Hopefully how to judge an error in baseball this article will help you make sense of the error rule which is covered in 10.12 in the official scoring
Does An Error Count Against Batting Average
rules. The basic rule is that an error is charged if a batter's at bat is prolonged, if he gets on base instead of being out, or if a runner (or the batter himself) advances errors in baseball positions extra bases due to a physical mistake made by a fielder. A key phrase in determining whether a play is an error or not is if the fielder could have "handled the ball with ordinary effort", and does not then it is an error. Some key points: A fielder can get an error even if he doesn't touch the ball The comment after Rule 10.12(a)(1) says "…It is not necessary that baseball error codes the fielder touch the ball to be charged with an error. … For example, the official scorer shall charge an infielder with an error when a ground ball passes to either side of such infielder if, in the official scorer’s judgement, a fielder at that position making ordinary effort would have fielded such ground ball and retired a runner." (Funny, I rarely see official scorers give Derek Jeter errors on these type of plays.) If a fielder gets to the ball, but can't make a play he should not necessarily get an error For example, if an outfielder dives for a ball and it goes off his glove, it was not a play where he could have "handled the ball with ordinary effort", therefore no error should be charged. If a fielder drops a routine foul fly ball, and the batter is subsequently retired, an error is charged even though the outcome is the same An error is charged if a batter's at bat is prolonged, regardless of what happens afterwards (*) No error is charged on a wild throw, if no runners advance extra bases For example, on an infield hit where an infielder throws the ball too late to 1st base, and throws wild, there is no error, unless the

He ends up failing to make the catch, not even getting a glove on the ball. There is no wind and lighting isn't a factor. It's generally assumed if the ball doesn't touch leather no error has been committed, but in this case the ruling is E8. Agree or disagree?

But in non-contact situations the test is still whether the play should've been made with ordinary effort.Hit would be scored if you had things like severe sun, gusty wind, etc. Or when the OF was still on the run. But in the situation you describe, anywhere above LL level it's an E.
