I was just posed this question.

What are the 9 ways of getting to first base without getting a hit?

I know the easy ones:

Sac Fly
Base on Balls
Hit By Pitch

    you don't get to first on a sac fly! well, not safely at least...

    dropped 3rd strike
    reached on error
    fielder's choice

      I know. I meant to type fielders choice.

        walk
        hit by pitch
        dropped third strike
        fielder's choice
        error
        fan interference
        catcher inteference
        pinch running ( I know, I'm thinking of BATTER reaching first, but the question was posed as PLAYER).
        then the bogus description below, which I believe is a cop out and should just fall under pinch running. (but it's not my quiz)



        9 ways for a baseball player to get on first base without getting a hit… pinch running counts.

        One of the ways is if “player X” is on first base, then the game is suspended and re-scheduled at a date when “player X” is no longer with the team, thus “player Y” will run for him. To me… that is pinch running. And thus the list should be 8 reasons

    walk
    reach on an error
    catcher interference
    drop third strike and beat the throw
    wild pitch third strike and beat the play fielder's choice
    Hit by pitch
    Inserted as a pinch runner
    fielders interference with the runner
