A DP or TP in and of themselves do not necessarily negate an RBI. It was specifically a reverse-force DP (as correctly referenced above) that negated.
On Monday, Brantley of the Indians was credited with an RBI after hitting into a DP.
R1, R3 zero outs.
Lindor running from 1 on the pitch.
Fly out.
Runner from 3 scored.
Lindor doubled up at 1.
Brantley credit with SF DP RBI.
