HEADINGS The score-sheet is made up of two sheet that are identical except for the column headings

The first sheet contains all the information on the game and a table for noting down runs per inning. This first sheet is reserved for the visiting team, or the team that bats first. • Tournament – league name (age group) • Date – day, month, year • Venue – town, name of field • Start – time game starts • Finish – time game finishes • Time – duration of game, minus any periods of suspended play which are to be recorded under “Remarks” • Umpires – name of umpires with plate umpire mentioned first • Scorers – name of official scorers • Teams – runs per innings, visitors on top line and home team on bottom line Only the headings on the second sheet are different from the first. There is a repetition of the game data, to identify which game the second sheet refers to. There is also a space for notes, which should be used for recording the circumstances of interruptions to the game, reasons for protests or reservations, and an explanation of any plays that could be difficult to interpret. • Tournament – league name (age group) • Date – day, month, year • Venue – town, name of field • Visitors – team name • Team – home team name • Game No. – use only if fixture donates game number • Remarks – Write down anything which could help to clarify specific actions of the game LINE-UP ()

When more the game as a DH, PH, or PR than 4 lines are necessary, the lines after position 9 shall be used – must include the batting order. CENTRAL SECTION

The very top boxes above each innings holds all the innings information

This space contains the changes to defensive positions that happen in that innings.

Space for the number of the innings 1 Changes should be made in an inning with a small number 61 11 2 1 / 6 8 indicating the number of the change (eg: 61; 11)

If more than one set of changes takes place in an inning, separate these sets with an oblique stroke (/)

More on Substitutions later in the presentation. CENTRAL SECTION

The central section is used to describe all the plays made during the game

The various squares making up the central section record plays in an anti-clockwise direction (same as running the bases)

10 10 EXAMPLES OF FIELDERS MAKING ERRORS OTHER AT BATS (AB) There are three main types of error

The first is an error taking a ground ball or throw, and this can be a decisive error (if an out would have resulted had the play been made correctly) or an extra-base error (if an out would not have been made but some advancement would have been prevented had the play been made correctly)…

A decisive error (marked with An extra-base error (marked an “E”) in which the first e9 with an “e”) in which the right baseman (#3) dropped a good fielder (#9) misplayed a ground 6E3 throw from the shortstop (#6) 9 ball, allowing the batter to reach second on a single B F S B B F  F B  Note: as this all happened on the same play, the quadrants 7 10 are connected with a line EXAMPLES OF FIELDERS MAKING ERRORS OTHER AT BATS (AB)

A decisive error (marked with An extra-base error (marked an “E#T”) in which the e1T with an “e#T”) in which the shortstop (#6) made a bad pitcher (#1) makes a wild pick- E6T throw, allowing the batter to 9 off throw, enabling the runner reach first base at first base to reach second B F S B B F  F B 

25 SUBSTITUTIONS (CHANGES)

NEW YORK YANKEES INTERNAL CHANGES These types of changes are simply a switch in the defensive positions of players, without anyone leaving the game and being replaced by 6 JETER, Derek 27 another player. 1 4 -----”----- 27 ATTENTION: While the player’s name may be replaced with ditto marks (") the shirt number MUST ALWAYS be repeated.

BB6 On the opposite score-sheet

A change in defensive position should be indicated by drawing a horizontal line in the opposing team’s score-sheet, above the square for the next batter, to indicate that the fielding positions change from that point on. 1 At the same time, at the top, next to the inning number, the new defensive positions should be indicated by writing 6 3 the numbers of the changed positions with the superscript 1 (or 2, 3, etc. if there have been several changes in that position). This means that, from that moment on, the defensive plays in which these two defensive players are involved will be noted not with numbers 4 and 6 but with the numbers 61 and 41.

613 CHANGES IN THE BATTING ORDER This is when a player takes the place of another player in the batting order. • His name should be noted in the appropriate place under the name of the replaced player. • A vertical line, as in the following example, indicates from which inning the new player began to play. • The score-sheet of the opposing team should show the point at which the fielding positions changed, as in the case of an internal change. • In the IP Column next the line-up, you should note how many innings they played at that position. SUBSTITUTIONS (CHANGES)

SUBSTITUTION OF RUNNERS • If a runner is replaced while he is on base, such a substitution is noted by thickening the border of the square for that base. • The example shows, in order, substitution of a runner on first base, on second base and on third.

SUBSTITUTION OF When a defence substitution consists of a change of pitcher, in order to make this event stand out more clearly, the horizontal line is emphasised with two oblique strokes. In this manner, when we come to make our calculations for the pitchers, we can immediately distinguish any pitching substitutions from the other defensive substitutions made.
