scoring error similar question

Post by metsfan » Wed Mar 09, 2011 7:30 am

Man on 1st and 2nd. Batter hits to SS. SS makes a bad throw pulling 1B off the bag (E6). Everyone advances safe.

Is this the correct way to score?

In play>> Error
mark where it was hit
Touch SS for error
Runner on second to Third on Error >> Touch SS for error
runner on first to second on Error >> Touch SS for error
Hitter safe on first on Error >> Touch SS for error


Thanks

Looks good except he last line. What happened to batter I would score as held up. You have already scored reached on error at the beginning, so the error at the end would be redundant. JMO

Does scoring it this way not result in multiple errors being assigned rather than the single error that was converted? Is that the proper way to score it? This raises the question in my mind of how is a 2 or 3 base error distinguished from multiple errors in iScore?

If entered during a single play sequence, errors assigned to the same defensive player are only counted as one error. If multiple players during a sequence are assigned an error, each one is given an error. If you want multiple errors assigned to the same player, you can either enter the data as two separate sequences (i.e. enter everything about that occurred on the first error, then tap runners and enter everything that happened on the second error) or you can enter everything during the one sequence, then use Misc->Assign Error to add additional errors to a player.
