I had Frank Tanana get injured on a strikeout...yet don't find that on his card. What's up with that?

Injuries for pitchers in a DH league only occur on a roll of 6-12 when facing the DH. When a pitcher gets injured you look at what the result of the play was which was a strikeout in your case. You then determine if the batter bats L or R. Once you have that information you go through the pitcher's possible cards to see what years could possibly have that result on a 6-12 roll.

I see that Tanana has a strikeout on 6-12 in both 1984 and 1989.

You can not tell the card year from an injury in a non-DH league because the pitcher uses the same batting card for each year.

Ok thanks a lot LMB. The injury happened against a Righty batter. Looks like I have at least an ok Tanana card.
