Question

A home run, triple,double,single all count as a HIT.

Answer 1

How about 23?
Base hit
Walk
Intentional walk
Hit by pitch
Dropped third strike
Failure to deliver pitch within 20 seconds
Catcher interference
Fielder interference
Spectator interference
Fan obstruction
Fair ball hits an umpire
Fair ball hits a runner
Fielder obstructs runner
Pinch-runner
Fielder's choice
Force out at another base
Preceding runner put-out allows batter to reach first
Sac bunt fails to advance runner
Sac fly dropped
Runner called out on appeal
Error
Four illegal pitches
If a game is suspended with a runner on first and that player is traded prior to the makeup, another player can take his place

Answer 2

one million. a base hit 2. hit via pitch 3. an blunders commited via a fielder 4. base on balls 5. dropped third strike 6. a fielder's selection play 7. catcher interference 8. fan interference . A sac. bunt that the batter reaches on could grow to be a fielder's selection or an blunders and particular a base hit and does no longer be a sac. bunt at that element.

Answer 3

1. Hit
2. Walk
3. Hit by Pitch
4. Reach on Error
5. Fielders Choice
6. Catcher's Interference
7. Dropped 3rd Strike by Catcher
8. And, finally, I believe if, for example, there is a runner on base, and a batted ball strikes the runner (causing him to be out), then the batter is awarded first base (provided the runner did not cause the 3rd out).

Answer 4

1. Hit
2. Walk
3. Hit by Pitch
4. Reach on Error
5. Fielders Choice
6. Fielder/catcher Interference
7. Dropped 3rd Strike by Catcher
8. Pinch runner

Answer 5

Base hit, fielder's choice, error, walk, hit by pitch, catcher's interference, obstruction, passed ball (on an uncaught third strike), wild pitch (on an uncaught third strike).

The batter-runner is never awarded first base on a balk, and there is no such thing as a catcher's balk. Also, when a batter-runner is awarded first base when his batted ball strikes an umpire or a base runner, that is scored as a hit. A base award for a fielder's using detached equipment that touches batted ball is also scored as a hit or an error, depending on the situation.

Answer 6

Hit, error, fielder's choice, walk, catcher's interference, strikeout/passed ball, and pinch-runner. You can argue that there are other ways -- like someone throwing a glove at a batted ball -- but the eight are how they are catagorized.

The pinch-runner is the tricky one. In 2004, Boston's Gabe Kapler suffered an injury on a homer and couldn't run around the bases. A pinch-runner came in to finish the trot.

Answer 7

A hit, walk, hit by pitch, an error, strike-out (where catcher doesn't catch the ball and runner reaches first before the throw) a fielder's choice, catcher's interference or runner interference and pinch running??

Answer 8

Hit, Walk, Hit by pitch, catcher interference, error, fielders choice, fielders interference and dropped third strike w/ less than 2 outs 1st base unoccupied with 2 outs it does not matter if 1st is occupied or not.

I count nine:

1. Hit
2. Base on balls
3. Hit by pitch
4. Fielding error
5. Fielder's choice

7. Dropped 3rd strike
8. Illegal actions by a fielder (basically, if they throw their hat or glove at a ball to stop it)
9. He hits a ball that hits a runner or umpire before a fielder gets to it

Answer 10
