Information AboutFielder's Choice |
|
Example: With a runner on first, the batter hits a Ground Ball to the Shortstop . Instead of throwing the batter out at first, the Shortstop chooses to throw to Second Base , making the runner out. The runner is called out, but meanwhile, the batter reaches first base safely. This play is a fielder's choice. A batter who reaches base safely as the result of a fielder's choice is ''not'' credited with a Hit ; he is charged with an out just as if he had been put out himself. |
