Scored but taken from the field (9)
I believe the answer is:
scratched
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'scored' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'taken from the field' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'but' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for scratched that I've seen before include "Pulled out of contest" , "Used one's nails and withdrew from the competition" , "Etched - withdrawn" , "Withdrew from the contest because of an itch?" , "Scraped, scored" .)
