The Martian is really good, yeah. I love snark in narrators. For those unaware, the first three lines of the story:

Back at my computer now so I'll go more in depth. Witty's correct about all of what he said. So to explain how a run can score without a hit: A walk puts a runner on first base. Call him A. A sacrifice bunt (the batter deliberately hits the ball very softly in the infield, allowing the runner to get to second base while the batter is thrown out- sacrificing an out for a better chance at the next guy hitting the run in) gets A to second base. An error- let's say batter C hits a ground ball to the second baseman, but he drops the ball, is a baserunner without a hit. That puts runner A on third and C on first. A sacrifice fly- if a fly ball is hit, a batter can "Tag up" by waiting on the base until the ball is caught and then run to home plate/the next base. It's fairly common if the ball is hit far enough, like to near the wall, for a runner to tag up and score. That's how a run can score without a hit- a walk, a bunt, an error, and a sacrifice fly. A perfect game, as a side note, is where a team gets no runners at all to first base. No walks, no errors, no hits. It's pretty rare- 21 times total since 1900. 2012 actually had three, which was incredible. Arguably the coolest perfect game is the one Don Larsen threw in the 1956 World Series. As another side note, there have been 287 no-hitters (that includes perfect games) since 1875. Only 11 of those involved more than one pitcher, and all were in nine inning games. So for a nine-pitcher, ten inning, no-hitter in which two runs scored, you're basically getting lightning in a bottle. Yes, I'm a huge baseball nerd.

This is fantastic.

A no-hitter is when a team gets zero successful hits - meaning that they hit the ball in-bounds and then made it to first base. If you're not familiar with how strikes/balls work, a strike is counted for each time the batter swings and misses, swings and hits a foul ball (unless that would be the third strike), or doesn't swing but lets the ball pass through the "strike zone". A ball is counted when the ball misses the strike zone and the batter doesn't swing. If you get three strikes, you're out. Four balls, however, grants you a walk, which lets you advance to first base for free. This means that it's possible to score points without actually hitting the ball. A ground out is when a fielder gets the ball and throws it to base before the batter can make it, which means that he's out. I'm not sure why it was brought up in this context, since it's definitely not how you score points.

I had something written but my iPod accidentally refreshed the page as I went to look something up. Suffice it to say that runs scored in a no hitter has happened only nine times in regular season baseball. And in all of those it was only one run. Spring training has a lot of room for weird shenanigans like this because it's the teams getting the winter out of the systems and experimenting with younger and less tested players.
