This is a new one on me, but maybe I just haven't followed the play-by-plays closely enough:

0 F.Frisch 3-6 Single (RF) b-1 F9
0 1 B.Boone h&r Home Run (CF) 1-H b-H F9
0 E.Aybar 6-12 Strike Out b-0 F9
1 R.Sadecki 5-8 Line Out (SS) b-0 F9
2 K.Cuyler 6-11 Strike Out b-0 F9

Back when I was playing the board game, the best hit and run result I can remember was a double. But if Bob Boone can power up for a homer in a pitchers park (this game was played in Robison Field) maybe this strategy is better than I give it credit for.

I suspect this was one of those rare play things that the computer game kicks in once in a while. Hit and run results in line drive to CF and CFer misplays it but does not receive an error. Ball rolls to fence and hitter circles bases.

I thought there was something about the H&R results where the result gets read off the pitcher's card instead of the H&R chart. I'd have to look it up on my CD ROM game though and I'm much more lazy than that.

Well gotta appreciate that honesty. :lol:

It does make some sense that to some extent the result should be based on the pitcher.
