scoring on a double play with one out, does the run count?

Answer 1

Only if the runner scores before the 2nd out of the double play is made, and it isn't a force out. For example runners on 1st and 3rd, ball hit to shortstop, he throws to second for the first out, the runner from third scores, the second baseman throws to first for the double play, the run DOES NOT count. However, ground ball hit in the same situation but to the first baseman, the first baseman steps on 1st, the runner from third then scores, the 1st baseman throws to second where they have to tag the runner since it isnt a force out AND the runner scored before the last out was made, the run COUNTS

Answer 2

Most of the time, of course not. Most of the time includes the "standard" GIDP's.

But there is such a thing as a timing play, in which the defensive play is not considered to be continuous. In that case, if the runner crosses the plate before the second out is recorded, then the run counts.

For example, with the runner is on third and one out, the batter hits a deep fly ball that is caught. The runner tags up and runs, crossing the plate. But the outfielder, instead of trying to throw out the runner at the plate, throws out another runner on the bases. If that other runner on the bases is tagged out AFTER the lead runner crosses the plate, the run counts. But only if the lead runner crosses the plate before the other runner is thrown out. Ergo, a timing play.

Answer 3

That depends on how the final out was achieved. If it was any other way but a "force out". It would score if it crossed the plate first. As an example, if a runner was caught between bases and he was able to avoid the tag untill the other runner crossed the plate, that run would count. However if it was a force out, (the runner had to be at a particular base to be safe, but could not get there), the timing is not important, the run would not count.

Answer 4

If it's a standard double play (that is, force outs for both of the outs), then the run would not count. If they're not both force outs (say, one is a runner getting tagged at 3rd after he started at 1st), then it would if he scored before the out.

Answer 5

Average better quit smokin the dope,every double play isn't a force out,the run will count as long as the last out isn't a force out,and the runner crosses the plate before the 3rd out is made,happens all the time.

Answer 6

No.

The other answers are confusing.
A double play is ALWAYS a force out... otherwise it is just two outs in the same play. Then of course, it would depend on whether the run scored first or the second out was recorded first.

Answer 7

depends where the double play was made

Answer 8

the run does not count

Answer 9

no

Answer 10

No.
