0 C.Biggio 5-7 Single & Error - 2B b-3 gb(2B)x F9

If the 2nd baseman throws the ball into the stands or dugout, batter gets 2nd base.
So did he pivot and fire one into the right center field gap?
Just another example of the impossible happening.

please provide a link to the game so we can see the circumstances ourselves.

Slow bouncer. Runner beats the throw by a step for a single. Hurried throw in the dirt bounces by 1b for an error and extra base.

Since he ends up at third, probably a throw into the stands.

Let's say Hornsby is playing second 2b 2e17. Gbx to him. Roll 1 or 2 with the 20 sided dice and a 3 or an 18 with the other three dice. The result is single plus E2. Result would be single and error, batter to third, all runners score.

Yeah, I understand the dice resulting in this, but show me a play in the history of MLB where with no one on base and a GB to the 2nd baseman, the batter is credited with a single and some how the 2nd baseman gets a 2 base throwing error.
About the only way it could happen is if the 2nd baseman turned and purposely fired the ball into the right center field gap.
So once again, strato goes out of their way to put an impossible result into the computer code.

A Steve Sax highlight reel from 1983 might show a few of those.

They all ended with the batter on 2nd

When an overthrow goes out of play, runners are awarded two bases past the last base legally touched.

I think the overthrown ball caromed off the facade of the dugout and rolled down the right-field line. The ball's still in play.
