Runs Accounted For

So the baseball season kicked off this morning, so as practice, we decided to count the RAF for this game and the game tomorrow to make sure we know what we're doing.

Boston 6, Oakland 5

Red Sox
Top 6th:
-M. Ramirez doubled, K. Youkilis and D. Pedroia scored
-B. Moss singled, M. Ramirez scored
Ramirez earns 1 RAF for batting in 2 runs. Youkilis and Pedroia each earn .5 RAF for scoring, thus 2 total RAF between the 3. On Moss' single, he earns .5 for the RBI, and Ramirez earns .5 RAF more for scoring. 3 total RAF (as well as runs scored) in the 6th.

Top 9th:
- B. Moss homered
Nobody on base, therefore Moss receives the full RAF this inning.

Top 10th:
- M. Ramirez doubled, D. Ortiz and J. Lugo scored
Ramirez again gets 1 RAF. Ortiz and Lugo each pick up .5, 2 RAF in this inning.

So we have:
Ramirez - 2.5 RAF, 5 RP
Moss - 1.5 RAF, 2 RP
Youkilis - .5 RAF, 1 RP
Pedroia - .5 RAF, 1 RP
Ortiz - .5 RAF, 1 RP
Lugo - .5 RAF, 1 RP


Athletics
Bot 1st:
- M. Ellis homered
- B. Crosby grounded out, D. Barton scored
Ellis gets 1 RAF for the home run. Crosby and Barton each get .5 RAF.

Bot 6th:
- J. Hannahan homered, B. Crosby scored
Hannahan gets the full RAF for his run scoring, plus he gets half for batting in Crosby. Crosby receives another .5 RAF.

Bot 10th:
- E. Brown doubled to deep center, D. Barton scored
Brown and Barton each receive .5 RAF.

For the A's:
Hannahan - 1.5 RAF, 2 RP
Ellis - 1 RAF, 1 RP
Crosby - 1 RAF, 2 RP
Barton - 1 RAF, 2 RP
Brown - .5 RAF, 1 RP

This is obviously a lot of information to throw into a post for a stat that took about 2 minutes to calculate. But it is the first post so I wanted to explain how I got some stuff in case anyone was confused. I will post about the second game tomorrow and that one should look more like what the rest of the season posts will look like.
