Recording a Plate Appearance

Baseball games are scored one turn at bat (Plate Appearance) at a time. The information entered should reflect everything that affected the player in that inning.

Not only is the player’s activity at the plate recorded, but his entire life on the bases in the inning.

To start, we will keep it simple and focus on how to record a player’s turn at bat. Later, we will expand the lesson to include men on base.
