Umpire interference

Post by Chukpen » Tue Sep 30, 2014 7:57 pm

Had a situation that I didn't know how to properly score. Men on second and third and the batter smokes a line drive that hits the field ump. It's called a dead ball. The batter is awarded first and the runners stay put.

How in the world does one score that in iScore?
