Courtesy Runner
Posted: Sun Mar 20, 2011 3:28 pm
When using a courtesy runner, iScore will grant a Run Scored by that runner to the Courtesy Runner, however, the run should be granted to the Person reaching base, not the person running for him. However, if the CR is thrown out attempting to steal, or is picked off, the out is recorded to the CR, not the batter.
Example 1
The catcher hits a single. Courtesy runner enters for the catcher and the next batter hits a home run. The catcher should be granted the RS.
Example 2,
The catcher hits a single. Courtesy runner enters for the catcher and is caught stealing. The caught stealing stat goes to the courtesy runner.
As far as I can tell, iScore incorrectly scores Example 1, I'm not sure about Example 2.
