Changing from Error to Hit

Post by runningwolful » Mon Apr 14, 2014 10:28 am

Here is a play that happened in our game last week:

Ground ball hit to 5
5 throws wide to 3
Ball gets by 3
Batter advances to 2nd base and then heads to 3rd base
3 recovers ball and throws to 5 for the tag out

During the game, I scored this reaching on an error, then a 3-5 putout. Upon further conversation and reflection with the coach, we have decided that the throw would not have been in time, even if it was on target. So, I went to the pitch-by-pitch editor and changed the original error to a hit. Unfortunately, the pitch-by-pitch editor will not allow me to re-insert the error that accounts for the advance to 2nd base. It did let me keep the 3-5 putout. Any suggestions? Or, is iScore really correct in not allowing that data entry, in that there would not be an error since an out was made on the play?

If the baserunner had a hit, and then was thrown out on an overthrow that would not have been an out anyway, then it is not an error.
