"A run scored when Sexson hit into what appears to be a reverse double play. Pursuant to Rule 10.04(b), a player is not credited with a RBI if he hits into a fielder's choice double play or reverse double play. When a RBI is credited to a player hitting into a fielder's choice that only results in only one out, it seems awfully punitive to not credit the player with a RBI because of the extra out. Anyone know what the rationale for this is?" Sexson hit into a fielder's choice, not a double play. Why wouldn't he get an RBI? I think the rule says "hits into a force double play", not a "fielder's choice double play". I believe the rationale for not scoring an RBI on a double play, is that teams would always be glad to trade an out for a run, but most of the time teams would not trade two outs for a run. My scoring question is: if a batter doesn't get an AB for a sac fly, why does he get an AB for a ground out that scores a run? Same result in both cases.
