Box score Anomaly #1

[McGuiser]

The scores and stats here do not add up. The standings reflect a home team win, as does the top bar here, but according to the boxscore stats of batters and pitchers, the visiting team won.


How this happened: Playing iOOTP13, I quickplayed to the 8th inning, checked the score without making any substitutions, then quickplayed to the end of the game.

This is very likely the bug that I keep reporting, where the game starts with an initial score. Given that one of the starting pitchers was removed after 2 innings with no hits and one walk, he was probably exhausted because of the bug.

I had it happen again a few days ago but didn't bother reporting it because I had no additional useful information that would help with tracking the bug down.

Well, my box score anamoly happened on the first day of the season.

My short stop made an error, but the box score said he had accumulated (22) for the year!

All that in one game?!?!

I posted about that in the other forum. It's not only a box score anomaly. If you take a look at the Fielding stats for a player (not while playing a game; only when viewing rosters from the Manager screen), you'll see that they keep fielding stats for the current year and for the previous year (which is quite inconsistent with every other stat). If you sum the current year and previous year's errors, that's what gets reported in the play-by-play and the box score. I almost put Ozzie Smith on the trading block because the game claimed that he had 30 errors partway through May!
