And he strikes out -- no, it's a home run!

    What's a base pad?

    He didn't pass anyone on the bases.
    When the "third strike" was thrown the score was 3-0. After they counted his run the score was 6-0. So the other two runners must've rounded the bases and scored ahead of him.

    And it's not really a home run. I think that should be scored KD-SB-SB-SB-SB.

    I don't think you can steal first base, so I'd imagine he'd reach first on a WP. Not sure how the rest of it would be scored, though. SB? FI?

    Guy who gets to first safely on a dropped third strike always gets credit with a stolen base.

    You could argue that he got on base and came around to score on defensive indifference.

    I was thinking the same thing, not really a home run. So, assuming the two guys on base reached on hits or walks, does the pitcher get charged with two earned runs after this fiasco?
