IGT: 4/7/2012, Braves @ Mets, Game Two

ugh. I really don't want to see that tracked. the stadium is the stadium and I hope they're at least tracking the opposition too.

It's not a CS in the box score. I guess it's just plain "out advancing". Would have to dig into the rules to explain exactly why it's not a Stolen Base Attempt if you start once the pitch has been thrown?

[Ceetar]

Rule 10.07(h) Comment: In those instances where a pitched ball eludes the catcher and the runner is put out trying to advance, the official scorer shall not charge any �caught stealing.� The official scorer shall not charge any caught stealing when a runner is awarded a base due to obstruction or when a runner is called out due to interference by the batter. The official scorer shall not charge a runner with a caught stealing if such runner would not have been credited with a stolen base had such runner been safe (for example, when a catcher throws the runner out after such runner tries to advance after a ball that had eluded the catcher on a pitch).

Seems like an interpretation, but I guess it makes sense. It'll look like a 2-1 (or 2-6) in the scorecard, but without the CS or PO it'd have to be the out advancing thing.

Everyone else OK with the new SNY ball - strike counter other than me and FK? If so, maybe me and FK need new TV's. I dunno.

I'm just hoping that when I watch today's game, I get an English-language broadcast.

Or a new prescription, Oldie.

During sunny days like yesterday, it's a little tricky because of the light in our living room. But that's more of a TV-placement issue than an SNY-bug bugaboo.

I have no problem with it.

I hate the dots. What is this, Morse Code? Show the numbers.
