Rule 9.02(a)(1) of the Official Baseball Rules[1] a sacrifice fly is not counted as a time at bat for the batter, though the batter is credited with a run batted in

I didn't mean to be so cryptic. YOU can't score a run if YOU make an out. If Rickey Henderson made 60 more outs a year and only walked 50 times his runs scored would've been a LOT lower. The skill was getting on base, NOT scoring runs.
