Fielder's Choice entry

I feel like I'm not doing this right, but maybe I am...

Runner on 3rd, 1 out. Ball in play, 2nd baseman comes home and gets runner in rundown eventually tagged out at plate.

I enter as:

In play
FC
spot ball
4-2-5-1
(what happened to runner?) out/home, tagged out
[it now asks me again to touch each position that handled ball] 4-2-5-1
(what happened to batter?) safe/2nd, advanced by batter

Is this right?
Why am I entering the defensive sequence twice?

Mark.

In that particular scenario, you can probably skip the first set of entering the "touches", but it does not hurt to have entered them twice. The reason it is doing this is most of the time a fielder's choice is a force play and you would not have to enter the second set of touches. Any time you say a runner is tagged out, iScore will ask for the touches for that tag out however.
