How many runs score?

Don't castigate me, I'm trying to help someone else.

Score is
(HS) 3-12
(NCAA) 3-10

in the bottom of 5th HM team ahead, with bases loaded. Batter hits a triple. What is the final score?
Batter is credited with a ( ) ? and how many ( ) RBIs?

Coach is looking an official ruling and I'm too busy working (imagine that? )to look it up in my books.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I should know better than to help coaches.

HS... with our run rule here in MN, at least one run scores. After that,

That is pretty much the question. Do the extra runs count or not?

Using the vast knowledge of scoring I have gathered over the years attending MLB games and trying not to listen to the "expert" commentary on TV, my answer would be no... game ending multiple runs are only counted beyond those necessary to win on home runs. As to the stats for the batter, .

But, count be as a disinterested Joe Morgan disciple on scoring...

I just looked at the official NCAA scoring rules. In a game ending situation, scoring stops as soon as the winning run crosses the plate. If a tie game with bases loaded and the runner hit a triple, the game would end as soon as the runner from third crossed the plate, and the batter is only credited with a single since that is all that was needed to score the winning run.

The only time the batter is credited with more is in the event of a home run, then they are credited with all runs scored and the HR.

Correct.

If the NCAA scoring manual doesn't say credit all awarded bases (like a book rule double), it probably means to and people probably do it that way anyway.
