Baseball terminology question?

There are several different ways to get to the different bases, but these are the basic names:\n\ngetting to first base- single. If you hit the ball and it is not caught and you get to first base only, it is a single.\n\ngetting to second base- double. If you hit the ball and it is not caught and you go straight to second base, it is a double.\n\ngetting to third base- triple.  If you hit the ball and it is not caught and you go straight to third base, it is a triple.\n\nAside from those three terms, there are other different ways to get to the bases.  There are other things, such as errors and feilders choices and stolen bases.\n\nError- When a fielder drops the ball, misses a throw, etc, it is said that the batter "reached on an error".\n\nFeilder's Choice- If there is a runner on base and a feilder chooses to get the runner out instead of the batter, the batter reaches on a feilders choice.\n\nBase on balls or walk- When a batter is thrown four balls (pitches out of the strike zone) the batter gets to go to first base.\n\nOnce a runner gets on base, they can steal a base, which means that between the time which the pitcher throws the ball and when it is hit, a batter advances bases.\n\nHome Run- Yes, you can get a home run from hitting the ball out of the park, and also when you hit it in the park and run all the bases.  The term for when a ball stays in the park but is still a home run is "an in the park home run".\n\nThat should do it!

Same for second and so on.  If he scores make a complete diamond in that box and fill it in.\n\nMake sure the next inning you use the new column with the cordinating batter.\n\nIf a batter flies out to short stop write F6, stand for flew out to shortstop or (6).  IF the short stop picks up the ball and throughs it to first, it is a 6-3 out. (Short stop - First Base)  In the box of the out you may want to make it clear that there was and out by writing the 1,2, or 3 and Circle them, incase someone asks the outs.\n\nThere are many other statistics  the coach might want, but that should get  you started.

E1 in baseball means an error on the pitcher.  It doesn't have anything to do with the umpire, it's from the score keeper.\n\n1 = pitcher\n2 = catcher\n3 = 1st base\n4 = 2nd base\n5 = 3rd base\n6 = short stop\n7 = left\n8 = center\n9 = right\n\nYour question is very had to interpret, but think this is what you're going after.

In baseball statistics the term save (abbreviated SV, or sometimes, S) is used to indicate the successful maintenance of a lead by a relief pitcher, usually the closer, until the end of the game. A save is credited to a pitcher who fulfills the following three conditions:\n\nThe pitcher is the last pitcher in a game won by his team; \nThe pitcher is not the winning pitcher (for instance, if a starting pitcher throws a complete game win); \nThe pitcher fulfills at least one of the following three conditions: \nHe comes into the game with a lead of no more than three runs, and pitches at least one full inning. \nHe comes into the game with the potential tying run being either on base, at bat, or on deck. In other words, the potential tying run is either already on base or is one of the first two batters he faces. \nHe pitches at least three "effective" innings (this is the only subjective criterion and is judged by the official scorer). \nIf the pitcher surrenders the lead at any point, he cannot get a save, even if his team comes back to win. No more than one save may be credited in each game.\n\nIf a relief pitcher satisfies all the criteria for a save, except he does not finish the game, he will often be credited with a hold.\n\nSave rules have changed over the years; the above rules are taken from the Official Baseball Rules 2004.\n\nThe save is defined in Section 10.20 of Major League Baseball Official Rules. The statistic was formally introduced in 1969, although research has identified saves earned prior to that point.\n\nA blown save (abbreviated BS) is charged to a pitcher who enters a game in a situation which permits him to earn a save (a 'save situation'), but who instead allows the tying run (and perhaps the go-ahead run) to score. As with any other similar situation, if the pitcher's team does not come back to win the game, said pitcher will be charged with both the loss and a 'blown save.' The blown save is not an officially recognized statistic, but many sources keep track of them. Blown saves have been tracked since 1988. Once a pitcher blows a save, he is no longer eligible to earn a save in that game (since the lead that he was trying to "save" has disappeared), although he can earn a win if his team regains the lead. For this reason, most closers' records include few wins. Closers make the majority of their appearances with their team ahead, so a win usually includes a blown save.\n\nIf a pitcher enters a game in a save situation (for a team leading by three runs or less) in an inning which is not the last (e.g. in a regulation 9-inning home game, pitching the top of the 8th), and his team later scores one or more run(s) to extend their lead beyond three runs, then as long as the same pitcher pitches until the end of the game, he is still credited with the save. As the various roles of relief pitchers have changed since the 1960s, closers who often pitch two or more innings have become increasingly rare; although exceptions remain.\n\nA pitcher also cannot create his own save situation. For instance, if he enters the game with a lead too large for a save, he would not make himself eligible for a save by surrendering enough runs to contract the lead to within save range. It must be a save situation when he enters the game, or he will not be able to earn one.

Baseball rules are tricky because there are so many ways to itterpret them. This is what I've figured out so far...\n\nIf the ball bounces infront or is nowhere near the plate, it is considered a wild pitch (And believe me, there are jokers out there who will swing at something like that if they think it'll get em to first).\n\nIf the ball is caught by the catcher, the batter is just out. If the catcher drops the ball, it is considered just a passed ball *UNLESS* it is a third strike and results in a base. In that case, it is indeed an error on the catcher.

Easy.  HGH.  Baseballers do it all the time.   Just ask Jason Grimsley.
