I turned the twitter on, on iscore. It basically sends a compressed box score correct? Will it not generate something like "Miller hits a 2 run double" then maybe a recap ( box score ) after each inning. Or does that have to be done manually? If so do you have to leave iscore to do it?

With twittercast on, you will get a automatic tweets for game set to begin, half inning scores, and final. Key events are not automatically tweeted, but you can press the twitter button anytime to manually tweet a play.

I have tried that. I must be doing something wrong. I hit the little bird and it says tweet. Is there another key to hit instead?

So I can't just type a tweet in? If I hit the tweet button it will send the score and current runners on.

That is correct. With baseball we do not currently allow changing the text of the tweets.

I've been trying to use twittercast and it doesn't work on my phone (info below). The test tweet works fine and iScorecast works fine, but no auto-tweets are sent out. I just learned about the manual tweets while reading about this, so I'll try those tomorrow night and see what happens.

After several attempts during the course of 2 different games, the results are:
- no automatic Tweets were generated even though I did have TwitterCast turned on
- Only 1 of 20+ attempts actually generated a Tweet that showed up on my Twitter account; I was doing the "Send Tweet" function at the beginning of the game, at end of every inning, and did a handful of random ones after big plays (2 run triple, great play on defense, etc) just to see what would get sent. Every time I would see the red "TWEET" display on the screen. Sometimes my 3G icon indicated network traffic, sometimes it didn't.

Since my iPad doesn't have data can I use my iPhone as a hotspot to send tweets?

If you have the hotspot enabled on your iPhone, then yes, the iPad can use it for all internet connectivity including the Tweets.

Paid close attention tonight, and every time I did the steps to send a manual Tweet, the Tweet was generated. No auto-generated Tweets at all, though.
