Unassisted Triple Play

as5680 · 09-18-2013, 08:10 AM

Having just seen my team hit into an unassisted triple play for the first time, it made me wonder whether OOTP recorded instances of this anywhere - unless I have missed it, it doesn't seem to.

I would love to know how many times in my league such rare things happened and wonder whether it is the kind of thing that could be added to the Accomplishments section of league history.

This is the only place i have seen it. I have a thread about my 1st Triple Play somewhere under GD.
This is under League reports Fielding Stats.

Thanks I hadn't seen that - good to see that triple plays at least are recorded somewhere. I do suffer them occasionally due to probably overusing the hit and run, but the unassisted one was a first and I guess there is no way to know whether there have been any others in my league.

Given the rarity of the unassisted variety, it would be great to see them given special mention somewhere or another - especially as some of the other Accomplishments recorded in History are many times more common. It would be good to have seen it come up in News as well, maybe that is something that could be incorporated.

Mets lost the game on a triple play in 2009.
