Correcting a scoring mistake

I ran into a situation in which it was announced (I was scoring an MLB game on TV, which I do all the time) that a runner had singled (true) and reached second base on a throw to home (false; he held up at first). I had already entered the false information in iScore. I went to the pitch by pitch display and tried to fix the misinformation. There I found that the first base option was grayed out when I touched edit. It seems that there is no way to have fixed the mistake. Is there a way?

I suppose I could touched Undo, but then I would have to reenter the whole play from memory. Also, if the mistake was not discovered until after the game, Undo would do me no good at that point.

What would be the best way to deal with this sort of mistake?

Thanks,

Ben

Undo is the way to handle a play where the wrong base was entered for a player. You can change the reason a player reached a base by editing, but you can not change the base they actually reached. Undo and re-entering the play is the correct approach.

Thank you so much. The responsiveness of your customer support staff is one of the two best that I have ever dealt with by far! Feel free to quote me if you wish!
