Overtime Game

Post by dgcramer » Wed Apr 25, 2012 1:02 pm

We had an overtime situation and I chose the California rule for overtime and it correctly put the last out on send base, however we also start with one out and assign one ball and one strike to each batter. How is this properly scored so that the ball and strike don't get credited to the pitcher and how is the Out assigned so it does not go agains a particular batter.

Not currently an option, but hopefully a future enhancement.

Work-arounds:
For out - just use Misc-End Inning when 2 outs are reached.
Balls and Strikes - not as easy, but you can have a dummy player added to the lineup- sub him in each new AB and mark a ball and strike, then P back in.

Thanks. That is what I did for the Out. I didn't think about subbing a dummy player for the Ball and Stike. Definitely a workaround. Hopefully they will add as a feature. Doesn't happen a lot, but would be nice to record it properly.

First time scoring and I was not aware of the California Rule, and proceded to score the game with manual notes about the players starting at 2nd base. How can I go in and edit the inning to include these runners?

as this is near the end of the game by default, i would restore the extra innings, make note of what happened, then go in to the game, undo back to start of tie breaker, (use options , tiebreaker, ) and score it out...
