The MLB rules forbid the use of a courtesy runner in rule 3.04. The comment to that rule states "This rule is intended to eliminate the practice of using so-called courtesy runners." Instead it seems that MLB uses the term pinch-runnner to indicate a subsitution for a batter-runner who has safely reached base. Should the courtesy runner button on iSB be renamed to pinch-runner?

No. We have a pinch runner option as well. iScore is used to score all levels of baseball and softball and many leagues allow the use of courtesy runners.
Check out the new iScore Baseball documentation page!

Details like Courtesy Runner make this practical to use in high school. Good job.
