Pop foul muffed by 3B. Two pitches later batter flies out to CF.
I know this should be E5 F8 on a scorecard. Not sure how to enter it into iScore. Thanks for any help.
Best,
Tony Lima (asking for at least one other person as well)

You can use Misc -> Assign Error to assign errors to players when they muff a foul ball.

That's exactly what I did! One more question.
On another board someone suggested that the error should be erased since the batter was out on a subsequent pitch. I'm skeptical, but I tryst you folks.
Thanks again for such a terrific product.
Best,
Tony Lima
