What you described, especially the "Action" window with hitter/pitcher stats/pictures and the strike zone, is EXACTLY how MLB.com GameCast has their "Action" window set up.

I would suggest people calling up a game there (its free), and checking out how they display a game in progress.

They fit A LOT into a very small window and its mostly very intuitive. With more real estate in OOTP, some of the trouble GameCast has in fitting lineups and box scores on a screen would go away.
