Great! I've been waiting 11 versions, so what's one more?

Again, I don't mean to sound like a jerk with this, but is it that big of a deal?

Yes, this is mostly cosmetic. I'd love a separate category for inside the parkers to be tracked. But I'd be ok with just a change in the play-by-play. I don't play deadball era much, but I do have a league with some really big parks. It requires much squinting and pretending to transform what the game calls a 625-ft homer into an inside-the-parker. I want to read the text of a guy flying around the bases on a liner up the gap that rolls to the 575 sign. It's just not the same when he's trotting around the bases on a homer that would be hard to believe in a park on Mars.
