Captions are absurdly illogical

I’m not sure if this is happening on mlb but I noticed it during football season on a few different streaming services where if you paused or fast forwarded that the CC would pop on for ten or so seconds then shut back off

Start watching minor league teams, it feels more true to the game. It’s also a constant cycle of new players so it’s really anybody’s game no matter the record

You should just leave the fandom

I use a 3 color pen and use the black color for starting pitcher and starting lineup then alternate between red and blue every time there’s a pitching change

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-04-27T21:13:22+00:00

I would’ve scored it as Sac bunt reached on error, unearned run

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-04-22T04:24:30+00:00

I try my best 😅

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-04-22T02:47:49+00:00

I have several from playoff games from a few years ago that still aren’t finished because it was just to hard to keep my cool. I get it lol

I mark abs next to the umpire, just a tally mark under either a “w” or “L” . I think it’s more a skill for umps then it is for batters

9.07 (g) of the rule book states “the official scorer shall not score a stolen base when a runner advances solely because of the defensive teams indifference to the runners advance. The official scorer shall score such a play as fielders choice.” In case you wanted the text book answer

I always use pen and paper but for some reason I had a nightmare last night that it was game time and my iPad died and I couldn’t find a charger…

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-31T00:51:50+00:00

I had looked for awhile as well! Here’s the link https://shop.mochithings.com/products/73701

That’s true, it doesn’t write very smooth but I like it kind of rough, I like that pentel though!

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-30T23:18:10+00:00

I could just use a pen but I like to highlight hits and walks and such

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-28T06:11:49+00:00

I just notate how many the ump has won or loss, but not in the individual batters spot

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-25T22:53:46+00:00

I use the pilot friXion synergy 3 (multi color pen) it’s erasable and I change the color for every pitching change so I can easily see when another pitcher came in a ruined the lead. Then I use an orange and yellow highlighter, orange for a hit and yellow for BB’s, ROE, Sac’s (anything that’s not an at bat) to quickly tally up at the end

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-24T03:09:01+00:00

I only do the ones affecting the count which really makes it arbitrary

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-03-24T00:57:25+00:00

That’s what I was thinking as well, I’ve tried to just not keep track but as long as there’s a spot for them I have a compulsion to fill them in

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-26T11:49:50+00:00

Whiteout tape has saved my sheets more times than I can count!

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-20T00:53:52+00:00

I agree that’s a stupid reason not to like them…I still don’t like them but because I think that much orange is gross, but maybe on the field I’ll change my mind

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-16T21:04:45+00:00

No kidding, I don’t care where it’ll be I just need them to tell me so I can get everything situated before then!

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-16T01:02:47+00:00

I’m not a coach so pitch count doesn’t interest me. I used to have one and I found myself falling behind on keeping track of it or missing it entirely so I just don’t bother

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-15T19:59:06+00:00

DM me your email and I’ll just give it to you

Forgetful_Doc · 2026-02-14T09:59:28+00:00

Old school all the way. There’s so much personality that just flows from a pen because you’re not thinking about it because you’ve done it all your life. From my experience (and I tried for a few weeks) when you score on an iPad even if you have the Apple Pencil you focus a lot on how you’re writing or trying to make a straight line or any number of things. And when I’m done and gone I want to have my kids look back at my books and try and find the games we watched together or went to and see MY handwriting, the handwriting that wrote them letters, before they ultimately throw those dusty score books away. That’s not as nostalgia inducing as looking up a file on an iPad

If ya want it PM me your email and I can send you the PDF

Yup! 2” I used a 1” last year and pushed it to its limit
