Earned Runs Rule The determination of earned-runs is as follows: An earned-run is a run for which the pitcher is held accountable. In determining earned-runs, the inning should be reconstructed without the errors and passed balls, and the benefit of the doubt should always be given to the pitcher in determining which bases would have been reached with errorless play. Until 1969, a reliever could not be charged with an earned-run if he entered the game after the side could have been retired but for an error, no matter how many runs he subsequently gave up in that inning. Now, runs scored by batters who reach base off the reliever are charged as earned on that pitcher’s record. They are not, however, charged as earned against the team as a whole. Therefore, a discrepancy may occur between the total earned-runs charged against a team and the sum total of the earned-runs charged against the individual pitchers of that team.
