wrong pitcher listed

Have ver 3.45.410 android. On the scoring screen it shows the batting lineup (team that is batting) in a box on the left (nice), but the pitcher underneath the batters is the pitcher for their team, not the pitcher that is currently throwing. Then when the sides switch the same thing happens. the team that is batting shows up correctly but the pitcher for the team that is batting shows up, with his pitch counts for the previous half. Make sense? very weird and I spent over an hour messing around with swapping lineups (visitor & home), changing if to do pitch location first etc.
I have uploaded a photo showing the screen here

That is correct... on the Android it shows the pitcher and batters for the team together. You can tap the team names at the top to toggle between the team being viewed. We have tried to find room to show both pitchers on the screen at all times, but the screen is very tight.

but why not show the pitcher that is pitching against the lineup batting? showing the pitcher stats for the same team that is batting is irrelevant.
ps: Love your app otherwise.

We debated which would be better to show, and the way the screen is configured, decided it is best to keep the same team's players showing together on the screen. Having one team's batters with the other team's pitcher would be confusing to many more users than having the same team's players all together. Sometimes our decisions have to be based on what is most logical to the most people. As noted, we would like to show both pitchers if we can find the room. We may make an option to let you decide which pitcher to show in the future.
In the meantime, you can tap the teams at the top of the screen to toggle which team is showing.

but on the small screen view you do show the pitcher that is pitching against the batter that is batting. The reason it is usefull is that the coaching staff wants to know the pitch count (total pitches) so they can decide if they want to pull the pitcher or not. so in the big screen mode i have to switch teams....
anywho, like I said great app regardless.
