What problem was there with this?
I posted about this problem here back in June. If you scroll to the final post of the thread you can see why it's a problem. 115 errors by two teams in one game being mostly responsible for 125 combined runs...is...well...a bit much if you ask me. And that wasn't exactly an isolated case.

Unfortunately according to this thread, patch 11.2.23 has done nothing to address this issue. It can be gotten around by importing each player individually after deleting the original bunch of fielding rejects, but that's a lot of trouble to go to in the later years of baseball. Not too bad in 1871 when there are only 115 players in the whole database.

Note: It only arises when one uses Neutralized Stats in combination with a modified stats folder (specifically the Master file). If the historical database.odb is left in there it's fine. Of course, you can't use a modified stats folder without getting rid of the .odb database otherwise it will overwrite any changes you've made to the Master file and therein lies the problem...And so it goes.
