In game results

[Bigdummie]

When playing out a game, is it possible to see exactly what the hitter has done in previous at bats? I know in batter stats there is a stat for what hitter has done, but I am asking say batter is 1 for 3, how did he make a out(s) and what type of hit. Hope I'm making sense. Thanks.

I think the game log gives you some of that, but not sure if it's as detailed as you are asking for? I don't spend much time looking at game logs as it all tends to run together in my eye.

Hopefully one day we get a scorecard.

Yes, you'd have to look at the game log for those details.

It has been requested in the past, I think it came up again during Beta also, that previous AB info shows on the player label during the game.

I should bring this up in the suggestion thread but since you mentioned the beta team..

Have you ever heard anyone bring up color coding the log to highlight the result ? And as my non-coding self I have no idea how hard this is to do.

I haven't seen it brought up, be a good suggestion.

I really wish they would go through the GUI/Skins and clean them up. I don't mean the layout, I like that you can customize views and I like the over all look. The problem is there's a lot of little things that need tidying up as far as format and colour go.

For example, I'm a BIG fan of the new Classic Skin, however when playing RTS, you cannot see the Location and Start time on the scores n schedule page because the font colour is light grey on the classic skin. They are quite easy to see when using Dark or Light Skin, but not Classic.

Some columns in various views aren't aligned properly. So on n so on.

That's the kind of clean up I mean. Just simple things that need attention. For sure, highlighting more things could be part of that too.

This would be a great feature to have. As mentioned, sometimes the ticker at the bottom of the batter info shows: Last PA: Double or something like that, and the play-by-play usually gives some info as well. That little ticker on the player isn't customizable though, and just shows random stats that change every pitch.

I'd still like to see a player's full game plate appearances somewhere. Could go on the batter info, or it's own separate widgit.

I imagine the widget would pull the info from the same place the game log gets the data from. Should be pretty concise and easy to put in a corner of the screen. Could look something like

Inning - Result
1st: 2B
3rd: G4-3
6th: G5-4-3
8th: BB
10th: HR, RBI

Personally I'd also like to see how a batter has done in the current series, or last week in a useful spot as well.

It's pretty much why I've become a 100% dark skin player. I'm not complaining as I do like the dark skin a lot and it would still be my first choice even if the Classic Skin didn't have the visibility issues it does. But it would be nice to change to it once in awhile to just make things fresh for a bit and then go back to the dark.
