Somebody asked this on a Facebook Forum. They didn't offer context, so I'm not sure how it happened. They were using GameChanger and it wouldn't allow 2 RBIs on a sac fly. It lead to discussion & I wanted to get your thoughts.
Runners on first & second, batter hits a flyball (caught) and somehow both runners score.
It sounds to me like a sac fly 2 RBIs, GameChanger wouldn't allow more than one RBI.
It's odd, so maybe GC just didn't have multiple RBIs in it's sac fly algorithm.
Others said there would have had to have been extenuating circumstances for someone to score from first of a flyout, errors runners moving up on the throw. Probably, but not necessarily. Fast runners, a deep ball and an OF chasing away, a diving catch, a weak armed OF... lots of things could make it a legit play. Hell, both runners could have been stealing on the pitch, and thought there were two outs and just kept running on a really high flyball.
Is there any rule that states you can't get 2 RBIs on a sac fly?
