Updating Base Runner Progress Post-Game

[dfranke]

Hi, I recreated a game from detailed paper notes. However, I missed a passed ball that allowed a runner to advance. Eventually that runner would score, but my game re-creation has her stranded at 3B. Bottom line is I have one team short a run.

It doesn't appear that I can fix this in the pitch-by-pitch section. And of course this happened in the 1st inning, and I'd like to avoid undoing all the way back to that point.

Do I have any other options?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

You can override the stats to give whoever should have had it credit for their RBI, etc.

To get the extra run, you can Undo the last play of the game, add an extra inning to the game if necessary, re-enter the last play, then use Misc -> End Inning if needed and sub in a dummy player, remove the existing pitcher (so no stats are assigned to the pitcher), then enter a home run for the dummy player, and use Misc -> End Game. The score and stats will now be correct. You an add a note to the dummy homerun saying what it is for.

The only other option would be re-scoring the game (or undoing and rescoring from that point). Rescoring a complete game generally takes about 15-20 minutes.

Thanks, I will use these suggestions to straighten this out.

Any chance that the pitch-by-pitch edit options will be expanded to include adjusting the position of base runners?

Not any time soon. We have documented the reasons for this throughout the forum. Basically it comes down to the problems associated with integrity of the scoring and the fact that the results of one play tell what is possible on future plays, and the ripple effect that could occur if you were allowed to start changing baserunner locations.
