In Park Homerun not counted against Pitcher

Post by JimD » Fri Oct 30, 2009 8:18 am

It appears that an inside the park homerun does not count as an HR against the pitcher in the pitching stats. It show up correctly in the Pitch by Pitch and on the Scorecard, but in a game I recently scored with two (!) in-park homeruns, the Team Pitching summary show 0 in the HR column. The game and cumulative pitching stats do not charge the event against the pitcher.

Is this by intent or is this a bug?

Hi Jim D - Nice catch. We are not correctly counting "In Park Homerun" against the pitchers. It shows fine on batting stats, but the pitchers do not get shown as giving up a home run when it is "In Park". We will get this fixed for the next release.

In the meantime, you can use "Homerun" even for "In Park" homeruns, and just mark the ball location just inside the fence if you would like the pitching stats to show correctly for now. You can even edit the existing plays in the Pitch by Pitch editor, and then change them back later after we have updated iScore to count In Park against pitchers as well.
