This was a silly attempt to show what a combination scoresheet based on the Reisner (situational) method and a traditional scoring system might look like. There are two diamonds in each scorebox. The first is to record the situation (including outs, for which you circle 0, 1, or 2 although they didn't show up well in the scane) and baserunner advancement before the conclusion of the at bat, as you would in the Reisner system. The second is for tracing the runner's progress around the diamond, traditional style. You need not record how he advanced, since the Reisner portion does that for you, but it is helpful to mark stolen bases and CS that you'll want to credit to the individual's stat line.
Scoring like this is not particularly viable--it's basically scoring the game twice, once using the Resiner system and once traditionally. But it does give you both the situation and the traditional, individual-focused picture at the same time.
Unrelated note: If you're interested in LL Bean's scoring system, which I've touched on before here, you'll want to read my recent posts at Walk Like a Sabermetrician. The first mimics Bean's system. The second includes one of Bean's own scoresheets and his scoring key, thanks to Henry and the Bean company.
