Runner on 1st, nobody out. Batter hits a pop fly to infielder A, who drops it for an error. Then, trying for the [easy] force at 2nd, he throws the ball into the outfield, leaving runners on 1st and 2nd. Does infielder A get one error, or two? Why? 2. Runner on 1st, nobody out. Batter hits a one-hopper to 3rd, who forces runner at 2nd. 2nd basemen makes good relay to 1st to beat batter by 2 steps for the DP, but 1st basemen pulls foot off base too early -- batter is safe. Does 1st baseman get an error? Why? No opinions/guesses, please. If there is an official scorer's handbook, how about specific references. Bob Milosavljevic ...ihnp4!inmet!milos
