why is this an Earned Run?

[Hrbek85]

Cantu safe at first on 3rd baseman Izturis´ fielding error
Lee doubled to right, Cantu to third.
Gomes walked.
Navarro grounded out to second, Cantu scored, Lee to third, Gomes to second.
Perez hit sacrifice fly to left, Lee scored.


Lee's run was scored as earned.
Perez's sac fly was the 2nd out, error would have been 3rd out, neither of the 2 runs should be earned....right??

Yahoo does not have it as an earned run

I think yahoo took away the ER. Lackeys ERA is at 0.00 again.

[NZF]

Yeah definitely no ER in that situation. If Yahoo have it as one then they're clowns.

Have a look at MLB.COM, it will be correct on there.

now my other pitcher, Millwood, got charged an earned run on an obvious error by the 3B DeRosa. ugly stuff tonight, i hate this crap.

if anyone was watching that, feel my pain and tell me im not on crack.

no chance that wasnt an error on the so called "fielders choice". they called an error for the runner gaining a base, but not the runner from 3rd scoring on the play, who was out by a mile.

It was not counted as an er. He only has 2 er

[giants!]

Wow, Yahoo screwed up again. They have Lackey as having 2 er, when he only has one.

[Hrbek85]

he gave up 4 runs.

1 was earned.

they rescinded the earlier one, but they still gave him an earned run on a Guerrero miscue.

Id like to thank Vladdy and Mark De Rosa for their sloppy defence and their work on my ERA tonight. youd think they would have some pride in their D.
