(minor) game log bug

vyacheslavkozlovfan · 04-08-2002, 11:34 AM

A couple of times I have looked through the game log of one of my simulated games and found some irrational outs. Once I looked and saw that my center fielder had "lined out to the catcher". Ok, this is very minor. maybe i should not have posted it at all. Oh well.

Heh....guess the catcher is pretty speedy if he can run in front of the batter to catch a line drive. My guess is that it is a limitation in the pbp that is calling a foul tip caught by the catcher (not a foul popup) as a line drive.

I (and maybe others) reported this one at the outset and I'm sure it will be addressed eventually in a patch.
