Score keeping question - fielders choice

What's on your mind?

for the thinking minds
of heybucket.

1 runner on second base.
Runner goes to steal.
Catcher fires to 3rd.
Overthrow to LF.
Runner heads home.
LF throws home.
Out is made.

How would that go
in your team book?

Is it fielders choice all the way
around on this play?
Or hmmm? Maybe not? ;)


SB with a 7-2 put out. If she scored it would be an E2 but since she was thrown out at home you score the SB to third and 7-2 put out when she tried to advance. Not a CS in that situation.

More thinking fun,

Which is a fielders choice?
Are they both?
Or maybe not? ;)

1. Catcher throwing at a
stealing runner?
Or
2. Catcher throwing back pic?

The play in your preceding post has nothing to do with a FC.
‘ a play in which the fielding team's decision to put out another player allows the batter to reach first base safely.” Note an out is not required for a play to be a FC
Why does this bother you?


Bringing up some thinking scenarios to bring out discussion.
Notice the maybe, maybe not .....

Fielders choice needs to record an out .. no such thing as I chose to keep the runner at third . She needs to record an out.. E5

"Attempted play"

Needs to be an attempt at making a play. An active decision!

Standing and doing nothing is an error.

Defensive players need to learn to be quick thinkers and make immediate decisions at making a play, either at a base runner or the batter.

Hesitating.
Standing.
Staring.
Waiting.
Lingering.
* Are not a fielder's choice!

Make the play!
