Here is one scored as an error on my dd. Go ahead run on 2nd and runner on 1st 6th inning. Bunt to 3rd and DD is covering 1st but is 1st baseman. 3B fields ball and throws it in the dirt but hard in dirt about 8 feet short of 1st and it will skip two times. DD dives in front of ball and blocks like a catcher and throw is borderline for what she can stretch for. Blocks ball and prevents run. Team will get out of inning and eventually win in 7th. After game, dd leans she is given an error. I still can't understand that decision. Was told that she gave up the base.
Yeah, I don't get that one either. Wouldn't they have yelled at her if she held the base and let the ball go by? I know I always tell my first basemen to protect the ball first, even if that means you have to jump or come off the base. Sounds like a throwing error to me. Guess they like the 3B better!
