Triple Play w/ RBI
You think the umps did the "time play" call to one another before this? :)
Triple play RBI Frazier hits into triple play in 1st Yankees AB at home - ESPN Video |
I don't think it's an RBI when there's a DP (or TP) involved.
edit: (b) The official scorer shall not credit a run batted in (1) when the batter grounds into a force double play or a reverse-force double play; or |
So more accurate description is triple play with run scored.
Still a time play... |

I watched a short clip about this play, and they specifically said an RBI was not awarded.

Baseline
They called him out of the baseline, which he was giving up pretty much anyway... But was is the rule about the baseline? It looked to me like he just took a step or maybe 2 small steps... so maybe 2 foot or 3 foot outside the direct path between 2nd and 3rd... i thought there was some judgement built in to the umpire. He avoided the tag but didnt go crazy into the outfield...
