That one doesn't indicate a split, it just abbreviates "single"...is it a split in practice?


It is a split, single 1, out 2-20, vs. Lefties a 2-4 roll is a 1-3 single, out 4-20.

Wow, so the cards are not really the cards. How many of these mistakes do we think are out there?

Several of the '85 cards had splits that look like singles on the card. I know there was a post about it a few years ago. I think it came from Marc.

Thank you, myke. That's actually really valuable info.

Re: that '85 Rickey card: When scouting cards, I count what the 100% OB chances are on the "prime" roll results (6-8 in each column). That card is the only one I've seen (I'm no old-timer compared to some) with solid 100% OB chances on all the prime roll results (vs LH only).

With his CF eligibility I think that's the best Rickey card, by some margin.

Love that Rickey card! But now I feel like we've been living a LIE :shock:

Interestingly, while this indeed works for the 1985 errors, for Ward his graph implies that the split would be SI* 1-20, aka not actually a split lol.
