Individual stat option?

Post by amym_413 » Sun Jan 17, 2016 6:51 am

I have resisted learning how to successfully score a game because I don't feel that I can really watch and enjoy a game if I am responsible for keeping all the stats. HOWEVER, I am very interested in my own childs stats. It would be great if there were an individual player option. I have looked and I don't see where this can be done (unless I missed it). Any ideas about this? Suggestions welcome. Thanks!

iScore is intended to score games, not just keep an individual player's stats. In order to keep a single player's stats, you would still have to track the full state of the game... i.e. you would not get RBIs if other batters are not tracked, you would not get ERA for pitchers if not tracking opponent batting, etc. Tracking stats for an individual is not a use case we try and support with iScore as for just a little extra effort, you get full stats for the team, and with a little practice, it actually does not intrude on the enjoyment of the game at all.

Thank you for considering iScore.

I would second giving scoring the entire game a try. I am no longer doing the official scoring, but still use iscore to keep track of the games I'm at and then usually look at just my child's stats afterwards. Since I am watching college games now, I might look at the official scorebook when it is posted on line to see how the official scorer recorded a play that I had trouble deciding. It didn't take long with iscore to get comfortable with it back in travel ball days when I was the official book, so I could and can watch the game and converse with other parents/fans while keeping score on iscore. Two things that really help with doing the scorekeeping is I always know where both teams are in their batting order and it keeps me from yelling about the umpiring too much.
