Clearly a 2-run HR would, for example, let the Yankees win 9-7 (assuming this situation).

What if the bases are loaded and someone hits a ground-rule double, then do both runs come in?

I can't think of any other ways, but if there are some, what are they?

I'm 99% sure that only a home run can get you 2 or more. Even in the case of a ground rule double I am almost positive that only the first runner to cross home will count in the score.

Interesting. I tried looking for it on MLB.com's Official Rule book, but it has too much pointless information to look through to find what i'm looking for.

A ground rule dbl with bases loaded should score 2. The guy has to get his rbis.

you only get one run in that situation, guys have even hit home runs to win the game with guys on base and been mobbed by teamates to the point where the person who hit it never crosses the plate.

home run is the only way; have been on wrong side of these walkoff homers seem like 80% of time as when I give the 1 1/2 team wins by 1 run and when getting 1 1/2 other get 2 or 3 run walkoff homer.

Ground rule double scores one with bases loaded.


Homer is the only way.
