"Game score" at end of game in the box score and in Top Performances

[majestyx]

I was wondering if someone could explain what the "Game score" is at the end of a game when reading the box score. It's the first item under PITCHING. This "score" is also available for both batters and pitchers when looking at the Top Game Performances under League->Info & Reports.

Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

As verified by this: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...her-score.html,

it is based on this: Play Index Glossary - Baseball-Reference.com

Thanks, Bru. I was trying to figure out the best search to use but got far too many hits that had nothing to do with my question. The second link is great as it also explains the batting game score.
