A couple official scoring questions...

[Gulf Coast Blue]

On 1. It is just a base award by an umpire..........if the players momentum carried the ball into DBT.......I would not score an error.........unless the fielder intentionally carried the ball into DBT.......

Just put BA (base award) to explain the advances.......

On 2. Mark ITB to reference the runner that starts on 2nd.......you are correct......if that runner scores.......the run is charged to TEAM, NOT to the pitcher......

On 3. Denote CI (or CO catchers obstruction).........

Hope this helps......

As long as you understand your scoring system, and stay consistent......you should be able to reconstruct the game from your book........

I also have been official SK for my daughters HS JV team this year........

Good questions........
