Reading Fatigue Symbol @

QUOTE"
When a pitcher is injured - Pitchers are injured during the DH at-bat. First find out how they got injured (KO, ground out etc.). Also...did they get injured by a lefty or righty hitter? Switch hitters will always be the opposite of the pitchers arm for their at-bat. Once you've checked out the injury and the batters hand, look at your pitcher card. Go to column 6 on the left or right side of his card (determined by the batters hand) and go to the result on line 12. If that matches the injury sustained then that year is a possibility. Check all 5 years. For illustration purposes, In the 80's game Soto gets injured by Eddie Murray (a switch hitter). The injury is sustained on a strikeout. Murray is considered a lefty batter vs the righty Soto. So now go to Soto's card and look at column 6, result 12 on all 5 cards. You will see that Soto is in either his '81 or '83 year. This method may not pinpoint the year, but could eliminate some of the years. Also...You can't tell anything in NON-DH leagues using this method.


QUESTION
McNally gets injured on a KO to R Garr, "the 1st batter faced of the game".
Based on McN card, KO occurs in 69 and 72 in column 6/line 12 of LHB card; but in 74 the @12-gb(3b)C appears in column 6/line 12 of LHB card. Realize it is the pitch count fatigue symbol, but could it ever be scored as a KO?

I don't think so. occurrences with the @ sign are outs that become hits if the pitcher is fatigued. I can't imagine why they would become a different kind of out. It might be cool if there was a reverse fatigue, i.e. early in a game, a @ might turn a pop out into a strikeout, and late in a game, it would turn a pop out into a hit, but I don't think that actually happens.
