Picking Defense with 10 Fielders
Posted: Thu May 21, 2009 12:47 pm
So I was following another thread which recommended how to handle a little league game where there are 10 fielders, 12 batters and one kid on the roster who didn't show up. Basically, there are two options:
1) Leave him in as a batter and just skip him each time.
2) Delete him from the roster.
The above needs to be done or else when you make fielding changes each inning it will show as subs. I prefer the first because maybe the kid is just late and will show up later.
Anyway, when there are 10 fielders and you get to the screen by tapping any field position and it says "Select the fielding position you would like to change", there are only 9 positions listed - the OF is missing. You can, of course go back to the picture of the field and click the OF and make the change there but it is confusing that only 9 positions are showing.
I fear the developers have shot themselves in the foot here
. They are SO receptive to comments that it makes us all think we should just tell them every little thing we think of. The program is perfect for what it does and for the cost. I can tell you like to hear the feeback anyway, so I will continue offering it. But don't take it as any criticism, because it is not.
