Defensive Interference?

Post by iscore@tragus.org » Sat Mar 06, 2010 8:36 pm

Maybe I'm overlooking it but I can't figure out how to score defensive interference. Our 1st baseman was standing in the path when the offensive player tried to steal 2nd. I scored it as a simple stolen base during the game. Afterward, I went to the play-by-play and re-scored it as an E3 steal and made a note about the interference. Is that right or am I missing something?

We will have to add an option for Interference as a way for a runner to advance bases.

The Defensive Indifference is realy intended for a play like in youth --- 1st and 3rd, and runner goes to 2nd base and defense was never going to throw down to 2nd. This is Defensive Indifference.

Thank you.

For Offensive Interference, there is actually an "Interference" button. So for Baserunner struck by batted ball, you would click:

1. Either In Play, Fielders Choice (if it would not have been a hit), or In Play, Single

2. It asks what happened to the runner, click Out, whatever base they were heading to, and "Interference".

You can make a note that it was "runner hit by ball".

For the next release, we have actually added a few more out types:

RUNNER:

"Offensive Interference", "Passed Runner", "Hesitation" (softball), "Other"

BATTER:

"Offensive Interference", "Thrown Bat", "Out of Batter's Box", "Batting out of Order", "Other"

This will allow tracking some of the less often occurring plays without requiring notes to get the true detail.
