Another Minor Bug - Pitch Count

PiiWorks · 03-03-2002, 08:08 AM

When in the the play by play mode, I seem to see the computer incorrectly adding to the pitch count when there is a back to back foul balls.

Pitch Count is at 72...
the count to batter goes to 3 and 2 with a foul ball. It adds 6 to pitch count which takes it to 78. Count is still at 3 and 2 and another foul ball occurs. Instead of adding 1 to pitch count it adds 6 more.

I just looked a game I am playing and had the 3-2 fouled off twice and each time it added one pitch to the count.

Same here, are you sure it wasn't just a fluke?

The game is correct. Here is what you are seeing. When you click on pitch, the game generates a count then an action. The action, in this case, was a foul ball. The 3 balls plus the 2 strikes plus the foul ball as the action are the 6 pitches you are seeing. If you get another foul ball, it'll increase by 1.

On the same lines, if you had a 2-2 count with a foul, it'd go up 5. Then if the next pitch was a 3-2 count with a foul, it would go up 2, one to cover the ball you did not see and the foul.

Hope this helps and made sense.
