July 26, 200719 yr On Scenario #1 - I was 0-2 and that is woeful.... On Scenario #2 - After much contemplation, I was 2-2 , after I changed my one answer to "B". If I'm Adam Dunn and go 2-2, I would still bet booed....:lol:
July 26, 200719 yr Scenario #1: Runners on 1st and 2nd. Runners advance safely via double steal. How is that scored for the participating parties personal stats? Runners: A) Both receive a stolen base B) Lead runner only receives stolen base c) Runner going to the base that the ball is thrown to gets a stolen base Catcher: A) Is charged with 0 stolen bases B) Is charged with 1 stolen base C) Is charged with 2 stolen bases Scenario #2: Runners on 1st and 2nd. Runners try to advance via double steal but one runner gets thrown out. How is that scored for the participating parties personal stats? Runners: A) Safe runner receives stolen base B) Depends on what happens to the lead runner C) No one receives stolen base Catcher: A) Gets credit for a throw out and charged for a steal. B) Gets credit for a throw out only C) Gets credit for a throw out only if he throws the lead runner out It's an all or nothing scenario. Wow. A catcher can only throw the ball once yet he gets charged for 2 steals? Tough crowd.

July 26, 200719 yr Author Wow. A catcher can only throw the ball once yet he gets charged for 2 steals? Tough crowd. Bottom line, throw a runner out and you won't get charged for anything... It's an interesting scenario because you see so many catchers throw to second on a double steal. My guess is that they didn't see it right not giving him a stolen base because it's contested so much...

Fair point , though, on the "throw one out and you won't have to worry about it" concept.

I actually heard it the other night on a broadcast but I can't remember who's broadcast it was though...
