#376---HOU @ CLE, 2/28/2008

 


The Indians’ leadoff slot reached base in all six plate appearances (infield single and walk from Grady Sizemore, three walks and a double from Jason Tyner), with Tyner scoring four runs.

One thing I notice here with the mass substitutions is that I would record a defensive replacement at a new position in the style “[Name] [Position] [Inning]” as opposed to what I now do which is “[Position] [Name] [Inning]” (e.g “Niekro 1B B6”). The way I do it now is more aligned with how the starters are listed on the scoresheet, with position before name. Also, I now use numbers for position and ^ or v for top or bottom. Then as now, if a defensive replacement plays the same position as the fielder he replaced, I do not record his position separately (e.g. “Tyner T5”).
