From today's twins-angels game

Twins score 2 in the 4th, both earned.

Here's what happens in the 5th....

Redmond singles
Kubel safe on ss error, Redmond goes to 2nd
Punto homers, all 3 score
Bartlett Fouls out to 1b
Castillo singles
Cirillo grounds out, Castillo to 2nd
Castillo to 3rd on passed ball
Cuddyear walks
Morneau singles, Castillo scores, Cuddyear to 3rd
Hunter flies out

4 runs, 4 hits, 1 error

Ok my thinking is that Cirrilo's ground out would have ended the inning had Kubel not reached on the error, making Castillo's run unearned. Kubel's run should also be unearned since he reached on error. So two of the runs are unearned, giving Lackey 6 runs allowed, 4 earned. The current boxscore shows 5 earned.

And yes this is a fantasy baseball question and yes I do have lackey

But does my logic follow the rules of baseball scoring?
