Need help deciphering a roll

Good news: I won the game on a double by schilling in 10th inning

But: I can’t figure out the roll. It’s 5-11 which means pitcher’s card. Raymond has a FB(lf)x.
But: I don’t see an x result under the misc column in play by play page

Isn’t every x result listed? What am I missing?

Hmmm, I don't understand either. Submitting my formal protest now.

But congratulations on the sweep.

Been a while. would have to break out my boxed game. But isn't that X roll then the 20d for range first? And I think the boxscore showed the LF was a 2e8, so looking at the X chart on the SOM wiki cause I am too lazy to drag out the game, and the PC version is like running an Atari game...I think that is a DO on a "1".

edit--oh duh you mean it doesn't indicate it but it rolled it...

you were the home team...maybe it was on of those home field advantage 10% things. take it and run!

Yes, but the pbp usually notes an x chance in the misc column. There is no such note for this one. Perhaps just an omission in the pbp or a max rule?

edit: I didn't see your edit.

yup--that's what I am thinking. Most notorious thing I can think of is the 10% home avg rule. since we don't really know how it is implemented in practice.
Though I would think that would still show up in the Misc column and it would just force the "1" on the range or more simply why not a single. I don't know.

One sec...Grabbing my pitchfork

Granted if this were the BS finals, I'd be wondering why unless I was the winner :) So before anyone says it yes I know it could be a big deal

Thanks. Shocking but I’ve been on the other end many times.
