Ground Rule Double: Extra Base Hit or Not? | SFTC Clarification
Question
Hi,
Is a ground rule double classified as an extra base hit? I lost my streak on SFTC because they don't think so.
Thanks,
Jeff
Answer
Jeff,
Clearly, a ground rule double is scored as a double and is an extra base hit. Not sure how they could take that against you.
Maybe there was a scoring change later that changed it to a single or an error? Not sure how this would have happened but you never know.
Hope this helps!
