what happened here?

[sdajr76]

confused.

*** TOP OF INNING 1 ***
0 R.Thomas 2-4 Fly Out (RF) b-0 bpSI 1-8 F9
1 D.Dimaggio 6-8 Fly Out (CF) b-0 F9
2 H.Duffy 6-7 Ground Out (2B) b-0 gb(2B)x F9

the pitcher was a RHSP and r.thomas has a >4-gb(3b)B in the 2-4 slot. so how did he flyout to RF?

In the super advanced game This symbol > denotes a ballpark single result. You basically ignore the gb(3b) reading when playing super advanced and instead you roll the d20 to determine a single, based on the ballpark rating.

okay thanks. i understood what the > meant, but i did not know that it would transfer the play to the out field. i just assumed that it would be a single to somewhere near where the play was originally. and i do have another ? for you.

what was the second roll for the BP single?

Did Josh Gibson take two bases on a sac fly and score? That's a Cool Papa Bell move if he did - " turned off the light, and got in bed before the room was dark".

On the sac fly, there is a "rare play" on the chart where the outfielder makes a spectacular catch, but bashes into the wall and all runners advance two bases. Josh ain't no Cool Papa Bell. :)

Are you freakin' serious?

[Valen]

I have not seen that sacrifice fly scenario in real life. But Josh Hamilton and Elvis Andrus on the Rangers have both scored from second in a groundout where they simply never stopped running.

can someone please answer my question.

Thanks for explaining that. Gotta love Strat. Would be super cool to have that narration on the replay.

I did it once many years ago.

Wet field, I'm on 2nd. Pop up down the LF line. SS makes a nice over the shoulder catch. I'm off, as the 3rd basemen went down the line, and I figure all I have to do is beat the pitcher to third. SS plants his feet and all he does is slide on his....end...3b coach is waving me around, so I go for it. Throw is a bit up the 1b line, I slide on the 3b side, safe. I'm told that the fielder tried to get up and slipped again before he regained his footing, and made a flatfooted throw without much on it. Nothing he did warranted an error

I'm sure we've all been involved in plays that would look good in a box score.
