I don't understand how Sadecki doesn't have any earned runs. The comment in the recap made me check, and Sadecki made the error that allowed the run to score. How is that not an earned run???

Too Lazy to look at the box score, but if the error commited woulda been the 3rd out, all runners scoring after the event would be unearned....

An error is an error, even if it's commited by the pitcher. It's unearned because the run counts against Sadecki's fielding ability and not his pitching.
