Who do you think is the best 2nd Baseman in Baseball today? And Why?
No, there would be only 1 or possibly 0 errors on the play. If the fielder made a good play just to knock it down, or if there was a good chance the runner would have reached 1st base safely even if the ball had been fielded cleanly then no error would be charged unless the runner went to 2nd base. In that case it would be a 1-base error. If however it was a more routine groundball and the fielder bobbled it and threw it away it would be 1 error. If the runner advance to second base on the bad throw then it would be a 2-base error. Fieders often bobble ground balls and still manage to throw out the runner, thus no error is charge. It all comes down to the ruling of the official scorekeeper in the end, but it is almost impossible for 1 player to be charged with 2 errors on the same play.Does anyone know where the Texas Rangers stay in Chicago?

Who was the greatest left handed pitcher in MLB history?
An error is based on the runner reaching a base he would not reach without the error.So if the fielder bobbled the grounder, then overthrew it, it would be the scorekeeper's judgement as to whether to assign an error on the misplay, assuming the runner would have been out with a clean pick up, and then another error on the overthrow.
The short answer is that it would be possible to charge two errors.
Which name do you think is more stupid Mathew or Dylan or neither?
No because we can't assume he wouldn't have thrown out the runner with an accurate throw. So if the runner advances after the bad throw, it counts as one error.that is one error. it cannot be assumed that the fielder would NOT have gotten the runner after he bobbled the ball.
How much is the BILL RIPKEN baseball card with "Fu*k Face" on the bottom of the bat worth?
The official scorer has to decide whether or not the runner would have been safe or out had the fielder fielded the ball clean. If the batter should have been out from the beginning, then it is scored a fielding error. ERROR NUMBER 1If the throw is overthrown, and that runner advances to second base, then it is scored a throwing error. If there are other runners on base who score because of the overthrow, then it is scored a throwing error. ERROR NUMBER 2
Wow, you have gotten a lot of answers both ways, and I couldn't find a source either way, but I really hope you believe what I have said. IT WOULD BE 2 ERRORS!!
no it is one error charged to the fielder that overthrew it
Why do METS AND RED SOCK FANS hate on the YANKEES payroll, when they are 2nd and 3rd?
It depends. If the bobble turns it into a hit then that is an error, but if he would of been safe without the bobble then it isn't. The throw would be an error unless the bobble is an error and the runner remains on first base. There would only be two errors if the base runner gains two bases he wouldn't have gotten otherwise.Will the mets sweep the yanks today ?
depends technically and error should only be awarded if the play is routine but if the fielder was just trying to rush a throw personally i wouldnt give the fielder two errors but if he does end up on second base it is two errorsWhen you grip the bat when batting... How tight do you hold it ?
In the example you've given, only one error would be issued. Even if the runner goes to second or third it just becomes a two-base or three-base error. In general, only one error can be issued to a single player on a single play. Obviously there are exceptions on strange or drawn out plays, but that guideline generally holds.Who are the 4 to hit homeruns at shea, yankee stdm, ebbets fld and polo grounds?
noWhat is the Name of the Song that they Play Before Alex Rios Bats?
No, it's only one error. The bobbling part would probably not be considered an error, but the bad throw to the first baseman which allowed the runner to be safe would be the error (this would be all one play).What team in major league baseball has been no hit against the least of times of any other team?
For there to be two errors charged, there must be two bases gained by error. So if the bobble allows the runner to reach first, AND the overthrow allows the runner to go to second, then there are two errors on the play.However, there's a situation where a fielder can bobble the ball, overthrow it, and NO errors are charged: if the official scorer rules that a batter would have reached first base without the bobble (giving the hitter a base hit instead), but the batter doesn't advance to second on the overthrow, then there are no errors charged.
Why is a first basemans glove different?
It depends.If even after bobbling it, the official scorer determines a good throw to first would have recorded the out, then no. Just one error.
If the runner would have beaten out a good throw, then the bobble would be an error, and the overthrow would be another. It's all subjective. That's why occassionally the scoring is changed the next day.
Trewner.w what r the vahnces of gettin injured if u drop a ball that came out of your glove? duh?
No LOLDoes the first week of Baseball favor the pitchers or the batters?
dependsif the fielder thinks that he would have been able to get the batter out if he had not bobbled the ball, then that would count as an error, and if the batter advanced to second on the errant throw then that would count as another error so if the situation goes like that then it would be 2 errors
Why do pitchers in baseball use resin?
Yes but only if the runner ends up on second base.It can be, if error #1 allows him to reach 1st & the overthrow allows him to reach 2nd.
