Xtra inning, Runner On 2nd Scoring Question.

The Game · 03-02-2023, 02:33 PM

Is the P that is in to start the inning not charged with an ER when the runner on 2nd scores? Twice my Mr with a 0.00 ERA to start with was not charged with an ER despite giving up 2 ER each inning. He was eventually charged for 1 ER in the 11th inning.

No, the runner on base to start the extra inning is not an earned run. Here is an article about it that explains it.

The automatic runner placed at second base in extra innings does not count as an earned run for the pitcher. The runner gets credit for a run scored but not a time on base, and thus does not receive a boost to his on-base percentage. The batter who drives in the automatic runner is credited with an RBI.
