Fielder's Choice Issue

Post by chriso17 » Fri Mar 14, 2014 1:34 pm

Situation: bases loaded 2 out.
Ground ball hit to SS who gets a force out at 2nd (6-4) to end the inning.

Sounds easy. I've tried scoring it a couple of ways and it doesn't come out right.

Here's a youtube video showing it:

For the lead runner (the runner on Third), you actually want to use Safe, Home, Run Not Scored. At 00:34 into your video, you can see there is a Run Not Scored option in the bottom left of the choices for the runner on third. Then for the runner on 2nd you will enter him as safe at third.

i have had similar issues and still do not see this instruction working. Here is scenario, bases loaded 2 outs and batter hits FC to SS who unasssisted forces out at 2B. I could not get it to score this correctly...it would score the run and make 3rd out, it would call the runner at first out at home (which was certainly ridiculous but I swear it did it multiplet times). When you hit FC you have to enter what happened to each runner at each base, i never figured out how to make it score correctly without giving run or scoring the wrong sequence of out. i gave up. Any direction would be great.

The instructions in the previous post tell what the original poster was missing in his video. The key is using the Run Not Scored button for the runner on third base.

Here is the exact sequence:

In Play
Fielder's Choice
(tap ball location near shortstop), Next
SS, Done (or SS-2B if ball was thrown)
(asks what happened to the runner that was on 3rd base)
Safe, Home, Run Not Scored (tapping Run Not Scored is the important part)
(asks what happened to the runner that was on 2nd base)
Safe, Third, Advanced by Batter
(asks what happened to the runner on 1st base)
Out, Second, Force Out

play entry is complete

I missed the "run not scored"
Works perfectly now.
Thanks!
