PbP wrong on failed steal of 3rd

Charlatan · 06-08-2006, 07:06 AM

Just looked at a game log (and funny enough, it's like the first log I've inspected ever) and saw an error - a player stole 2nd base, but it must not have been satisfying, because he tried to steal it again on the next batter! I think the play-by-play is wrong though, and he gets caught stealing 3rd.

It's P.Parkes below. Ignore the links I just was too lazy to de-linkify it.

Code:

<table class="lpo" style="margin-bottom: 12px;" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td class="slgb" valign="top" width="160">Batting: RHB P. Parkes</td><td class="slg">0-0: Ball
1-0: Foul Ball
1-1: Ball
2-1: SINGLE  (Groundball, 6MD)</td></tr> <tr><td class="slb" valign="top" width="160">Batting: RHB D. Faucher</td><td class="sl">0-0: Called Strike
0-1: Called Strike
P. Parkes steals 2nd base
0-2: Strikes out  swinging</td></tr> <tr><td class="slgb" valign="top" width="160">Batting: RHB J. McDonald</td><td class="slg">0-0: Called Strike
P. Parkes is caught stealing 2nd base
0-1: Called Strike
0-2: DOUBLE  (Groundball, 5L)</td></tr> <tr><td class="slb" valign="top" width="160">Batting: LHB J. Bergman</td><td class="sl">0-0: Ball
1-0: Called Strike
1-1: Called Strike
1-2: Ball
1-2: Wild Pitch!
J. McDonald to third
2-2: Foul Ball
2-2: Foul Ball
2-2: SINGLE  (Groundball, 34D)
J. McDonald scores</td></tr> <tr><td class="slgb" valign="top" width="160">Batting: SHB R. Ritchie</td><td class="slg">0-0: Foul Ball
0-1: Swinging Strike
0-2: Ball
1-2: Foul Ball
1-2: Ball
2-2: Ball
J. Bergman steals 2nd base
3-2: Ground out 1-3 (Groundball, 13)</td></tr></tbody></table>

Just curious...how does it appear in the log if a runner gets picked off second base?

In real life the runner is charged with a caught stealing, right?

Charlatan,

Could you please confirm if this is with the patched version of the game?

Thanks!

I haven't heard back from Charlatan on this one, but it wouldn't hurt to have Markus take a look, so I logged it as TT #2019.

Thanks very much,

Steve

This has been claimed fixed in the next patch.

Thanks,

Steve

This fix has been verified in the latest version of the game.
