Missing run in box score

[Art Deco]

I've played tens (hundreds?) of thousands of games over the years and I don't think I've ever seen a box score error like this.

The Rays scored 3 runs in this game but under the Cubs pitching stats it only shows two runs allowed:



The only thing that was unusual about this game is that I gave up the DH for the Rays when Cruz got hurt and my only IF backup (Mead) was the DH.

This was still a first though, to see that the third run wasn't charged to anyone (it should have been to Steele).

Can you post the game log, at least for the 7th and 8th? I'm guessing there's some interaction between Elly getting injured on the bases, and the pitcher being changed, that is causing the issues.

I'm guessing that you changed Westburg to SS, then Mead to 2B, and were given the prompt that the DH is removed, etc..?

Yes that was the prompt I received during the inning. Nick Robertson was the pitcher so he came in to run for Oneil Cruz, who was injured while going to 3rd on Taveras' single, and Robertson scored a run. Here's the log from the bottom of the 8th when the last two runs were scored:



Here's the log for the bottom of the 7th when the Rays scored their first run. Mead, who was the DH and later took the field, drove it in so that could be significant as well:



It's probably some confluence of losing the DH and the players involved accounting for the runs but definitely an odd thing.
