@@vendingdudes It is a weird one. The catcher is charged with an error but the batter does not reach first on the error. They also do not get an at bat, as they would with other fielding errors.
I remember the one and only time I got on due to catcher interference. Swung and whiffed horribly because the Catcher had his glove too far up and I absolutely destroyed it. Ball hit the catcher right in the mask, his glove flew off, and the umpire awarded me first base. I was so confused bc I was in pony league and had no idea that catcher interference is an automatic base
I like to think that the guys sit around playing games like this in between their video podcasts while Jomboy is in a dark closet pouring over footage of Yankees games so he can tell Boone that the players hit 12% better when they don’t ask for a timeout mid at bat.
They included things like a dropped sac fly. Just another error. A sac bunt that fails to advance runner, which is just a hit if the bunter makes it to first. Ball hits runner, scored a hit. Ball hits umpire, scored a hit. Spectator interference, scored a hit. Fan obstruction, scored a hit. Runner called out on appeal. Not sure how that is reaching first. 😂 There also appears to be three that are fielder's choice. Etc...etc... Also, it is ESPN, what do you expect? 😂
catcher's interference is unique as it does not impact a player's OBP, even though an error and PA are counted. That is why it is separated on a list like this.
1: Take her for a nice dinner & drinks 2: Be nice to her dog 3: Include her friends in the conversation 4: Get along with her family 5: Serious Rizz 6: Money 7: Just go in and hope for the best 😅
First thought out my mind when i heard the question was only seven way to get to first base with a lady ? SEVEN ?! 😂😂😂than i heard walk and realized where i needed to pull my head out of 😂😂😂
I was able to guess number 7 before number 6. I don't know if I would have got number 6 without any hints tbh. Just a weird technicality that makes sense, but thinking of it as a unique way to reach first is tough
You also have obstruction to first which could happen and you could also have the ball hitting a runner/runner’s interference and the batter could still be warranted first base
In most of these questions obstruction and catcher's interference are combined into one, but obstruction is definitely a way to reach base. If the runner is hit by a batted ball I believe that the batter is still credited with a hit, so they would still reach on a hit.
Regular interference would be caused by the base runner. It would be obstruction if it was on the fielder, but that would be another way to reach first base.
@@distantgalaxymusic1447 You don't get a hit if there is obstruction. Obstruction is like catcher's interference, it is an error but doesn't count as an at bat. They reach on the catcher's interference or the obstruction, not on the error. You usually see both of these combined as "defensive interference" in the 7 ways to reach first base list, since catcher's interference and obstruction are basically the same.
@@user-kv6wh5ut6o so in the 7 ways to score it, why isn’t it scored as an error? If a batted ball is fielded and the defender interferes with the hitter/runner, it’s scored as a hit not an error. And if it’s catchers interference it’s scored that way and not as an error. Otherwise there’s no way to distinguish between the 2 in the tabulation and keeping of stats.
@@distantgalaxymusic1447 Obstruction and catcher's interference are unique. They are errors to the catcher or the fielder who obstructed the batter. The batter doesn't get credit for a hit or an at bat. They reach on the catcher's interference or the obstruction. Other fielding errors count as at bats and the batter reaches first on the fielding error.
Obstruction, yes. From what I know about the balk rule, if a ball is batted on a balk pitch and the runners advance then the balk is disregarded. I am not sure the same thing can happen on a balk pitch that is ball four, but if it can I am sure the balk penalty would be disregarded. They would reach on the walk, not the balk.
be on second, attempt a double steal, get caught in a pickle, make it back to second, think you are the runner who is out, head back to first, stay at first.
How about baserunner interference? If a runner is hit by a batted ball, hes out (in most cases). I’m not sure the batter is credited with a hit, nor whether the ball remains live (i assume it does and this would just be scored a hit, though).
Just ends up being a walk. A pitch clock violation is just a ball. So a pitch clock violation that is the fourth ball is just a walk. A pitch clock violation that is the third ball and the pitcher throws the fourth ball is a walk.
That is a hit. Runner is out but the batter gets a hit. There are of course other things about that rule. The point is that they would reach because of getting awarded a hit.
@@ben________3156 I would say you can earn intentional walks too. However, it isn't about earned or not. It is about reaching base, and you still reach base on the walk whether it was earned, intentional, or semi-intentional.
I wouldn't separate it for this. Just like I wouldn't separate the different hits. This is just a way to reach first base. Has nothing to do with players ability. If it was a bloop single, a bunt single, a well placed triple, or an out of the park homerun the batter still reached because of a hit.
Just a walk. If the pitch clock violation was ball 1 and the batter ended up walking it would be a walk. The same thing if the pitch clock violation was ball 4.
He didn't really reach first, he went back to first. 😂 He didn't hit a double. He stole second, went back to first, and then tried to steal second again.
