Thanks, Dave. I'll keep doing it when the baseball game isn't televised widely. Perhaps I should start with a glossary of baseball scoring code so that more can enjoy it.
K=out. WP=wild pitch resulting in advancing runner(s) BB=base on balls F7=fly out to left fielder 1-4-3=grounder fielded by pitcher, thrown to second for one out and to first for another out. If the attempt at second did not result in an out, but the batter is thrown out at first in the above example, it would be simply a 4-3. PB=passed ball, a pitch the catcher should have caught but missed resulting in runner(s) advancing. Class dismissed. Quiz next season. A.

I'm glad I know how to read the scoresheets, as I'm sure a few (not many of course) didn't have a clue as to what info you were describing. Now only if ESPN would get Vin Scully to do the play by play... On Jun 8, 5:39 pm, Arthur Polhill <lpolh...@bellsouth.net> wrote: > Paula and I are really looking forward to this series.
