Iscore is a great product but it is a little concerning there haven't been any major updates in over a year. Especially the slap enhancement which has been on here for almost 5 years.

If the intention of the slap is to move the runners, then you can score as a sac bunt and add notes. That way the batter's avg does not suffer. (As a workaround until (if) this enhancement is implemented.) The sacrifice is all about intention though. A 4-3 grounder put-out from any type of hitter that moves the runner has the same effect as a sac bunt as well, but negatively affects the batters average.

In my situation, many times, it could be classified as a Sac Bunt, but it's really not and is more like a ground ball to short or second. I'm fine with it going against their batting average, I just want to know that is was intended to be a Slap.

It's all about being specific in the types of hits. We have ground balls (Hard, Medium, Soft), why can't we also have a Slap (Hard, Medium, Soft).
