Reading a Pitcher Card

PostThu Jul 31, 2014 11:51 am

Can a roll of GB(ss)X result in a single when looking at a box score?

On of my pitchers was injured on a single by the batter. So I looked at the 6-6-6 roll. One of them is a single but 2 are GB(ss)X. wondering if it is possible to be any of the three or if it is almost certainly the "Single" roll.

yes. looks like you only narrowed it down to three possible seasons.

Actually, good news, sort of. the "Single" year is the pitcher's worst but he has been pitching much better than that.

What is the chance that a SS-X is a single if the SS is a 1e24?

Searching online has me concerned. Looks like with a "1" fielder, a SS-X roll may never be a single. Does anyone know if the online game uses the basic, advanced or super-advanced rules?

someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe if there is a man on first and he is being held on, the SS may be responsible for covering the base in the event of a steal attempt, in which case he drops to a 2 range.

Yes...if there is a left-handed batter at the plate. (The second baseman's rating drops against a right-handed batter.)
