One thing I've never understood about official scoring....they didn't get hits. They're not ending the play on base. If you get a single, you wind up standing safely on first base.

Those Bogaerts and that fat sack of poo from Boston in the top half of the inning weren't standing safely anywhere, they were both gunned down trying to stretch a single into a double. So how, exactly, does that work out being counted as a single? If they had both stayed at first and not advanced, that would have been a single. How do you get a single and an out on the same play? Makes no sense to me.

You get credit for every base you take without getting put out by the defense. It's the same reason why they don't take singles away from base runners that are subsequently caught stealing.
