RPA / ERG

[allrounder]

How does iScore calculate the following stats:


RPA

ERG



I can figure out the others but not these ones! (ERG gives the same result as ERA though)



Also when an innings is ended due to an "Offensive Run Rule" (in our case 7), it's not showing up as a completed inning for the pitcher as I think it should?

ERG is based on the # of innings you set in your games. If you have your games set to be 9 innings, then ERG will match ERA. If you set your games to be 6 or 7 innings (like a lot of little leagues / softball games are), then ERG uses the same calculation as ERA, but with the 6 or 7 instead of 9.

RPA is runs generated per plate appearance, and is calculated as:

(runs + RBI - homeruns) / (plate appearances)


Innings Pitched for a pitcher is very clearly defined as having made 3 outs. If a pitcher comes in with 2 outs in an inning, and makes the last out, they are only credited with 1/3 of an inning pitch. If a pitcher comes in, gives up 10 runs, but makes no outs, they have pitched ZERO innings (i.e. ERA can not be determined because if they were not taken out, who knows how many more runs would have scored). If an inning is ended early, that pitcher can not get credit for outs they did not make (as their ERA would then be falsely lower than it should be).

Hope that makes sense.

Brilliant, thanks!

Perfect sense!
