Fatigue indicator. These become hits when pitcher hits his limits .

Per the "How to read a pitcher's card

These @ symbol is ignored as Pitch-Count fatigue is used instead.

And then in the maximum rules section of that link

Pitch-Count Fatigue -- The pitcher's condition is listed on the right of the play-by-play as a number from F9 through F0. F9 means that he is operating on all cylinders whereas F0 indicates that he has nothing left in the tank. Normally pitchers start their appearance as a 9 and maintain that level until they start to approach their pitch count. The lower the number goes the worse the pitcher will perform. When a pitcher's condition drops below F9 he starts to give up more singles, doubles, triples, home runs and walks. If a pitcher's condition drops to level F0 he will continue to fatigue the longer he stays in the game. His condition rating will remain displayed as F0, but he will start to give up more and more hits and walks if you leave him in the game.

So the @ symbols do not matter in 365

I believe that the way pitch count fatigue works is that as a pitcher becomes fatigued, there is a probability that an initial roll that results in an out will be re-rolled. This probability is 0% when the pitcher is F'9, but increases as he progresses through F8, F7......

thanks Barr, that's what I saw from the link palmtanna sent

that they don't actually apply anymore in 365....except maybe to give an idea about what they're fatigue factor is, but that's on the card also.....

i just didn't know what that symbol meant, even from tabletop days didn't see or even know if it was around 40 years ago

thanks for explain

In the tabletop game, it's just a black dot instead of the @ symbol.
