In response to "which means Wikipedia is right and groiny is wrong -- nm" by oblique

right, but it is not only with runner on thrid......

Posted by groiny (aka groiny) Apr 8 '10, 13:25

a double play would be in order, which is not possible with only one runner on.

Responses:

but your example of a runner on first is incorrect. It's 1B/2B or bases loaded (which is a force at 3rd and home as I believe pfm said) -- nm - oblique Apr 8, 13:26 9
- I had half of it right. It doe snot make sense that as a fielder - groiny Apr 8, 13:27 8
  - The rule is to prevent multiple outs from dropping a popup, it isn't supposed to stop the defense from choosing which runner to get out. (nm) - musubi Apr 8, 13:29 7
    - You are correct, but it is dumb in that case. - groiny Apr 8, 13:30 6
      - In field popups are pretty rare in general (iirc, leaguewide avg was something like 3%), and then consider the rarity of a batter - musubi Apr 8, 13:37
      - All about the stats. Infielders don't want those errors!!! -- nm - Shaun Apr 8, 13:32 4
        
        they would not be errors. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 8, 13:35 3
        
        I would deem it so. -- nm - Shaun Apr 8, 13:36 2
        
        I believe it's only an error if it costs a base. -- nm - Reagen Apr 8, 13:44 1
        
        It would be my own personal "Nice catch dumbass" error. -- nm - Shaun Apr 8, 13:46
