Double Plays (answered)
Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2016 7:00 am
I'm sure this is a simple question - but what is the proper sequence for scoring a typical double play (6-4-3, 4-6-3, etc)?
I've been scoring for a couple of years now and I've always scored it as "Ground Out (with sequence of outs - 4-6-3), Double Play! (for runner that was on First)"
But - this seems wrong. Technically, isn't it a FC, Runner on First is Force out at 2B, and Batter is Force out at 1B? But once scored as a FC, there is no other action to score on the batter-runner.
Am I overthinking this?
