double play not showing up?
Posted: Fri Mar 26, 2010 11:29 am
We had a situation 2 outs, runner on 3rd, 2 strikes on batter. There was a dropped 3rd strike, and the batter ran to first, and the runner on 3rd broke for home. The batter was thrown out 2-3 for the out, and the runner was tagged out at home 3-2, to complete the double play.
However, it doesn't show up in the fielding stats as a double play (scorebook shows DP, but not the sequence).
I scored it two ways:
Out: dropped 3rd strike
2-3-2
runner on 3rd - out at home: double play
Scorebook shows double play, but fielding stats for the team doesn't give credit for a double play.
I then re-scored it:
batter: out: dropped 3rd strike
2-3
Runner on 3rd - out at home: caught stealing
3-2
Either way gives the correct out order on the scorebook, but it would be nice to have the double play credited. Should I be doing it differently?
