For play by play, there are times when a player walks and the text description uses the word "issued" for the batter. For example, if Nolan Ryan walks Pete Rose it then might say "Rose has issued 45 walks this year." Pitchers issue walks....batters draw them, so it should say "Rose has drawn 45 walks this year".
