Crediting assist on throws dropped for errors?

Post by juphoff » Sun Oct 23, 2011 4:32 pm

By the rules, a dropped throw (error) that would otherwise be a putout should still credit an assist to the fielder who made the throw, despite the lack of a putout. Is there a way to credit this assist in iScore (aside from editing the stats directly)?

Editing statistics is the only way to handle this right now.

Example: 2B fields clean and errors on throw to 1B. The way I score on a scorecard is 4E-3.
Example: 2B bobbles hit and throws to 1B late. E4-3
Example: 2B clean field, good throw to 1B, 1B bobbles or drops. 4-E3

If iScore would allow similar input of all who handle the ball with the capability of assigning an error at any point post-hit. Then the credit for assist could automatically calculate as well as the error. This would be a big plus for the program, and up to this point, the only major drawback I have found.

We really don't need the same question posted twice. We responded to this in the other place you posted it:
