Movement of baserunners

[irishgator]

The app seems to usually advance the baserunners pretty well. I would much prefer for it to make the assumption of where they are going for advanced by batter, without me having to click for each runner. I would prefer to correct the exceptions where it is wrong...

All you have to do is press held up when a batter has been moved to the right base. We ask for each batter to reduce the number of people that leave runners on the wrong base. We already have enough requests from people who leave runners on the wrong base... if we did not prompt for each runner, that number would go up.

I think it's kind of crazy to have to tell it a runner held up on strikeouts etc. Especially when bases are loaded it just takes up time.

How much time? 2 seconds? And nothing is happening in those two seconds. a batter is walking back to the dugout after striking out with bases loaded. You have plenty of time to hit three taps.

Try coming to one of my games. I'm a one man crew. I do a regular scorebook(official), announce, work scoreboard, dj music, keep press and radio updated, work directly with umpires. It's just an unnecessary thing that could be eliminated.

Sounds like you need help, not a new feature.
We've had stolen bases on a 3rd strike.

I, for one, appreciate that it asks about each runner. We've had people picked off or steal bases after strikeouts, so it is not a given where base runners will be. As a scorekeeper, even when doing a pen-and-paper book, I double check where the base runners are after each batter, so I find this incredibly intuitive. (And yes, I've been in the position that jks0157 describes of announcing, scoreboard, music, etc. I still checked the base runners every batter.)
