Player hits the ball. It rolls halfway up the first base line. The first baseman lets it roll because it looks like it might go foul (she stood over it waiting). It didn't go foul and the player is safe. Is that scored as reached on error?

There have been a few on this site that have said they score errors on plays like this, pop-ups that land between fielders, and throws not made. Scoring rules just don't support their cause.

I wouldn't score it an error but I am curious why 1B didn't charge pick the ball up, apply the tag and then make the play on other runners if there were any on base at the time... Even then, were there any runners on base?
