DIAMOND DISPUTES DECIDED
By Billy Evens
Does the pitcher receive credit farm.
a strikeout if the batman reaches
firsthaseonathirdstrikethatisa
wild pitch?
0 I e
Despite the fact that the batsman
runs on what is a third strike. the
pitcher does not receive credit for a
strikeout. .
Instead. the pitcher is charged
with an error for having made a
wild *pitch for the third'strike. 'The
wild pitch is considered responsible
for the batsman reaching first.
Therefore. the pitcher should be
penalized instead of rewarded. so he
is charged with an error and not
given credit for a strikeout.
0n the other hand. if the catcher
drops the third strike or has a
passed ball that enables the batsman
to reach first. the catcher gets an
error and the pitcher is credited
with a etrlkeout.
