Runners on 2nd and 3rd, no outs. Batter sacrifice bunts. Both runners advance on the bunt and throw from pitcher to 1st. Pitcher over throws 1st batter is safe at 1st.
I scored it sac bunt with error. It appears to be scored correctly but the batter does not receive credit for his on base percentage.

I guess its not technically a ROE since that would count against OBP (it would count an AB, but not credit a earned base).

The sac, ensures no AB is charged to batter so it doesnt hurt their OBP, but they dont get credit for reaching base, so it doesnt boost it either.
