Twittercast for Facebook

[Stats2002]

In order to broadcast the game via facebook with the latest upgrade, I would have to do the following in order for it to work...
1) send the scorecast to my e-mail,
1a) highlight the e-mail, copy-paste to my facebook account/group designated for broadcast
2) click on the game link (opens the game in a new tab)
2a) highlight the URL, copy-paste to the facebook post
3) Post to facebook

Recently, your company designed a way to stream the games via Twitter.
Could the same methods be used, if altered, to stream via Facebook? (Facebookcast?)
Just a suggestion that could promote the app and would help through social media.

Also, a couple of other suggestions to put through...
1) Is it possible to add a 'Foulout' to the out selection screen?
Scorecard could read '7F'
Pitch-by-pitch could read "batter fouled out to the left fielder/flied out to the left fielder in foul territory'

2) Enhance the pitch-by-pitch sequence on the caught stealing/pickoff plays to read fielding situations
Example: Runner is picked off at first
Runner is caught stealing at second.

Is it possible to show how they were picked off/caught stealing?
i.e. runner is picked off at first Pitcher to First Base
runner is caught stealing at third Catcher to First Baseman to Third Baseman

Thank you for the suggestions. We have long been considering the best way to integrate with Facebook. There are Twitter -> Facebook bridging options, but when we do fully integrate, we want to do it well. Sending many updates through Facebook does not seem right the way it is done with Twitter, but announcing the game and linking to the scorecast is something we will likely do at some point.

For the "foul out", we will add this to our enhancement list, but the reality is a foul out is statistically just a pop/fly/line drive out, and the fact that it was in foul territory is just commentary (and can be added as a note).

We will look into enhancing the text around caught stealing / pick off. It gives more details depending on where you are viewing the pitch by pitch (in app, admin website, scorecasts).

A foul out may not be different 'statistically' but as Iscore evolves and becomes more of a 'communicator' it may be time fir developers to put a different filter on when to differentiate descriptions not for statistical reasons but for play by play viewer reasons


foul ball out is a good example because it 'plays' different on the field . A drop fly foul. Is different than a drop fair foul. Etc
