The only way a runner can reach on a passed ball is if he strikes out, and the 3rd strike gets away from the catcher. Since the batter struck out, he should not have reached based, although no errors are charged the run if he later scores is an unearned run

See MLB Rule 10.18 Earned Runs. No earned run if batter reaches on passed ball.

A wild pitch is the pitcher's fault and contributes to the earned run.

What is an unearned run in baseball and how does it affect a team's overall performance?

An unearned run in baseball is a run that is scored by a team due to errors or mistakes made by the opposing team, rather than from hits or walks. This type of run does not count against the pitcher's earned run average. Unearned runs can affect a team's overall performance by potentially changing the outcome of a game. They can lead to a team winning or losing a game that they may have otherwise won or lost. Additionally, unearned runs can impact a pitcher's statistics and confidence, as they may feel unfairly penalized for runs that were not entirely their fault.

If a player is hit by the pitch and later scores is the run earned or unearned?

Depends on what happened in the inning prior to and after the batter is hit. Assuming that no errors or passed balls occur, the run will be scored an earned run. If the inning is extended by an error, or the runner scores because of an error or passed ball, the run would be unearned.


If a run score on a pitch that nicks the catchers mitt is in unearned?

A run scored on a pitch that nicks the catcher's mitt is generally considered an unearned run if the score is a result of an error or a passed ball that allows the runner to advance. However, if the run scores due to a subsequent play where no defensive errors occur, it would be counted as an earned run. The specific context of the play and the official scorer's judgment can influence the classification of the run. Overall, the rules around earned and unearned runs focus on whether the defense's mistakes contributed to the scoring.

Runner on third scores on a passed ball is the run earned or unearned?

it's a unearned run and the error would go to the pitcher if it's a wild pitch or the catcher if it's a past ball. This isn't necessarily true. The official scorekeeper will then see how the rest of the inning plays out. If the hitter ends up getting a single then is still charged as an earned run. If there were 0 outs to start, then the 3rd hitter up could get a hit that would have driven the run in and it's still an earned run, else it's unearned.
