Because he was lucky the guy on second tried to score. If the throw went to third instead of home he would have been out by a mile.

If it wasnt at home it would have been a double with an advance on the throw

Rules:


(b) When, with one or more runners on base, the batter advances more than one base on a safe hit and the defensive team makes an attempt to put out a preceding runner, the scorer shall determine whether the batter made a legitimate two-base hit or three-base hit, or whether the batter-runner advanced beyond first base on the fielder’s choice.

But the runner did try to score and it wasn't even close.

I swear you're a closet Mets fan or something. This is what happens when Cowboys fans try to root for other Philly teams. So negative 🤔

Uh the runner trying to score is the reason why it's usually an advance on the throw.

I mean even the commentators admitted it was some home cooking.

If you hit an infield single with a guy on third and the guy on third runs home, you still get a single if you advanced to second because the infielder threw home.

I mean this is baseball 101.

This was damn close to a double with an advance on throw.

He was past second before the "throw to home" and was running hard out of the box and never looked at the fielders throw.

Under MLB Rule 9.06, if the batter-runner intends to advance an extra base regardless of the throw, it is scored as a hit rather than a double plus an error/fielder's choice.

And it was very close lol

So if a batter intends to hit an inside the park home run, there will never be a fielders choice lol.

Where did you get that rule from. I don't see that

I did couldn't find it

And the fact that that people are tweeting about this means it wasn't as clear cut. It was the scorers decision.
