 one run in and still  two outs. Then lets assume that batters #4, 5, and 6 get singles  without scoring. Every consecutive batter who follows must then  drive in a run (no more outs to give). So if batters #7, 8, and 9  each drive in a run, the Yankees have already scored four runs in  the inning by the time Ruth comes back up to bat. If he drives in  four more, the Yankees will have scored eight in the inning, not  seven as announced.
