If an outfielder misjudges a line drive type fly ball and it sails over his head and doesn't touch his glove should be ruled an error

[beantown34]

depends. but yes they mostly grade hideous mistakes in the outfield as a hit

Yes if you/they don't touch the ball, then it most always isn't an error. No matter how egregious it looks.

Ok. That's what I thought.

[pavyracer]

Of course is an error. The outfielder needs to make that catch as he has all the time in the world to track the trajectory of the ball and adjust.

It was a line shot over the outfielders head. The outfielder ran in at first but then it was too late. I've never seen that called an error.

...The Official Scorer shall charge an outfielder with an error if such outfielder allows a fly ball to drop to the ground if, in the Official Scorer’s judgment, an outfielder at that position making ordinary effort would have caught such fly ball...

The score guy gave his kid a hit on a dribbler to the pitcher that hit off the pitchers glove but called the line drive over my Nephew's head an error. Mind you these are 7th graders

[KVB]

Wait, we're talking about 7th graders or mlb?

[Otters27]

7th graders. I'm just curious if I should call this guy out or not.

[fried cheese]

hah

[KiDBaZkiT]

Otters did you lose a prop or something?

[pavyracer]

7th graders? Are you serious? Most of the score keepers in my kids leagues don't know how to score the game.

[Otters27]

Otters did you lose a prop or something?

Ya no errors for my Nephew's team

[Otters27]

7th graders? Are you serious? Most of the score keepers in my kids leagues don't know how to score the game.

Yes serious question. Again the score keeper gifted his kid a hit when the other teams score keeper said he reached on an error and he gave my Nephew an error when he misjudged the fly ball...(other team gave the hitter a HR not an error as the ball was smoked and hit all the way to the fence.

I'm just wanting to know if I should call the guy out.

I'm actually fine with charging my nephew with the error but if he is giving his kid a hit for a weak ground ball that the pitcher mishandled then you can't call an outfielder error for misjudgung a ball that was smoked

[jtoler]

this happened to me in little league actually I charged ball when hit and went over head very embarrassing but redeemed myself by picking up ball and slinging to home plate(fk cut off men) pitcher caught it and threw guy out at home

[KiDBaZkiT]

Ya no errors for my Nephew's team

Not laughing at you losing but just the fact I knew that had to be the reason you asked this question

[stevenash]

Nine times out of ten it's an error.
Official scorer has the final say on this, but 9 out of 10 times he scores it an E

Ok. So dribbler off the pitchers glove should be an error then right

[KVB]

No, stay peaceful Otters.

Don’t become a viral video.

if it was the scorers actual child that he gave a hit to instead of an error then i think you have the right to complain about the error call on your nephew. you just have to judge whether it is important enough to you to go through the effort and you looking kinda crazy to the other parents.

I'm gonnt chill. Just hope someone catches the guy giving hits to his kid when they are errors

[pavyracer]

Otters don't say anything. The score keepers are volunteers. If you say something they will make you be the score keeper for the rest of the games and if you make an error scoring you will hear an earful. Just chill.

Ya I'm going to chill. Keep in mind these guys don't volunteer out of the good of there heart. They do it for obvious motives

Well ya he gave his child a hit on the dribbler to the pitcher but an error on my nephew for a ball smoked over his head. So what is it seems like he has a paradox going

[KiDBaZkiT]

Otters next time just bet there will be an error and have the little nephew mess up. It’s simple.

[MinnesotaFats]

Otters,

Make your own book w rulings and add hits to your nephews column.

Then, when coach is giving the post game pep talk or filling in the dirt in the batters box, you switch out the books.

Very Oceans 11 stuff here, but once year end stats are published, nephew might get a full ride D1

I know people who credit the OBA for a batter that reached base on an error.

Same plan minnyfats had, he's just sooooo early 20th century.

Nowadays you just get a hacker.
