Walk, hit batsman, passed ball (uncaught third strike), wild pitch (uncaught third strike), defensive interference, obstruction (on an uncaught third strike; the first baseman could theoretically physically prevent the batter-runner from reaching first), error (first baseman fails to tag batter-runner after receiving ball from catcher on an uncaught third strike).
Don't buy into any nonsense about balks, umpire interference, steals, pitcher fails to deliver a pitch within 20 seconds, etc.

Colin L hit it on the head. A hitter can not advance to first on a balk! A balk only affects the runners on base, a ball is not awarded to the hitter!

krakatoa has the 9 strategies. If the question distinctive "how can a BATTER attain first" then 9. Pinch Runner would not count type. there is one extra way by utilising skill of a balk. no longer your commonplace balk on the pitcher yet a distinctive form of balk it extremely is roofed interior the regulations. Rule 7.07 If, with a runner on 0.33 base and attempting to attain by utilising skill of a squeeze play or a thieve, the catcher or the different fielder steps on, or in front of abode base without possession of the ball, or touches the batter or his bat, the pitcher would be charged with a balk, the batter would be provided first base on the interference and the ball is ineffective. word the area that asserts "the pitcher would be charged with a balk, the batter would be provided first base" so it extremely is achieveable to realize first base on a balk. edit: additionally, for rationalization, interference and obstruction are countless issues. shielding interference occurs while the catcher "interferes" with the batter's swing. Catcher is charged with an blunders, batter gets first base and isn't charged with an at bat. Obstruction occurs while a fielder "obstructs" the batter/runner's thank you to a base. case in point, batter hits a floor ball to first, pitcher is going over to disguise yet first baseman takes it himself. Pitcher stands interior the baseline and obstructs the batter's way. Batter is risk-free in the initiating. edit2: SmartA$$-if you're going to team 7.07 in with interference (even nonetheless the guideline needless to say says balk) then you definately could classify your #9, #10, and #11 the comparable as hits because of the fact in each and each case the batter is provided helpful. additionally, on your #12, rule 7.05 (h) enables the runners to toughen one base even if it makes no point out of the batter. edit3: Everytime this question gets asks there's a great line on what classifies how the batter is getting on base. Technically you may additionally incorporate a Sac Bunt with an blunders and a Sac Fly with an blunders because of the fact the two a style of incorporate scored in a distinctive way. i assume it extremely is all in step with in spite of in case you're thinking the offensive thought or the shielding thought.
