PIR rules apply.

pfm wins. SABR says 14 (I say 15). - spamlet May 19, 08:24 11
- What about dropped strike three? Is that just a K but you are safe? And what if you are ejected arguing a pitch? I suppose that AB doesn't count. -- nm - volnelk May 19, 08:29 2
  - It gets scored as a K, so I think it just counts as a strikeout. -- nm - spamlet May 19, 08:52
  - If you're ejected before strike 3, the replacement guy gets credit for the at-bat, iirc. -- nm - Will Hunting May 19, 08:32
- If a scrifice bunt isn't a ground out, why is a sacrifice fly not a fly out? I agree with you... - Jim May 19, 08:26 7
  - and in both of those cases in your IM, the at bat ends with the strikeout. - znufrii May 19, 08:29 2
    - If the AB is over...how is the guy running to first base? That's like suggesting that as soon as the ball is hit, the AB is over. - Jim May 19, 08:44 1
      - because he isn't out and the ball is still live. - znufrii May 19, 08:57
  - because does anyone ever actually try and hit a sac fly? - znufrii May 19, 08:28 3
    - With a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs...damn right batters are going up there looking for a long fly ball. - Jim May 19, 08:29 2
      - the idealized hitter in that situation is going to prefer to hit it out of the park. - znufrii May 19, 08:33 1
        
        Well anytime ANYone comes to the plate a HR is a best case scenario. -- nm - Jim May 19, 08:42
I'll say 22 -- nm - Jim May 19, 08:09

- I'll clarify. A fly ball in fair territory no matter where would be 1 way. - spamlet May 19, 08:04
25 - znufrii May 19, 07:58
58. -- nm - Will Hunting May 19, 07:57
