Well maybe your right, delving into the rules on MLB.COM I found this rule which according to this play and the rule you would be correct the run would count:

4.09
HOW A TEAM SCORES.
(a) One run shall be scored each time a runner legally advances to and touches first, second, third and home base before three men are put out to end the inning. EXCEPTION: A run is not scored if the runner advances to home base during a play in which the third out is made (1) by the batter-runner before he touches first base; (2) by any runner being forced out; or (3) by a preceding runner who is declared out because he failed to touch one of the bases.

The batter had already touched first base and was advancing on the throw home so I guess the error was in the game log and PBP.

Thanks,
Sean
