Batting out of order - - - who owns the stats ...

Post by randkos3 » Mon Dec 12, 2011 6:28 pm

Here's what happened ... 1st Inning - Batter "A" came up to bat and walked. Batter "B" sacrifice bunted "A" to second ... no one noticed the 2 had batted out of order (from either team) as this was the normal batting order for our team. Our head coach had unknowingly reversed the two on the official "Team Line-Up" sheet prior to the start of the game.

Advance now to inning 3 --- the error was caught by our coaches so when it came time for our lead-off hitter to bat again, "B" was told to bat - she singled. "A" came up next and lined out to the shortstop . . . the game continued on.

So, "A" had a walk and a Line out, while "B" actually had a Sac.Bunt and a single. BUT, the Scorecard shows "A" with a Walk and then a single . . . and "B" with Sac.Bunt and a line-out.
My question: officially, do the stats belong to the batting position or the batter? Also, if it belongs to batters "A" & "B", how can I edit my scorekeeping to fix this scorekeeping error?

The stats belong to the player that actually batted. You can go to Pitch by Pitch for the game, and use substitutions to put the correct batters at the right at bats. The stats will automatically be updated.
