cybernetic Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I hit my first inside-the-park home run this afternoon in my dynasty. I was playing at home against Boston when I hit a ball off the bat of Frank Catalanotto that hit the top of the wall. Trot Nixon jumped and missed it.. it caramed off the wall and landed on the ground. Nixon fell and got up to charge the ball (by this point Catalanotto was almost at third). Johnny Damon actually fielded the ball and threw it home but it was off line and up the 1B line and he slid in behind the catcher. The announcers said "he got all the way around for an inside-the-park home run" but in the box score it just scored it as a triple with no error and no RBI.

mooseknucks Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 The only inside the parker I've ever gotten was at Polo Grounds. Dead center field and it was actually scored an inside the parker. Anywere it else, it will be scored that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYYKing Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 i haven't personally gotten an inside the park homerun, but the computer has done it against me a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansimcox Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I had a inside-the-park HR scored as a homerun on mine. It was a wierd one though. Josh Beckett (of all people) hit a slow roller just over 3rd base and into the foul ground. Must have been some kind of error in the comp as all the fielders stopped and he ran (very slowly) around all the bases to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 I had one where the guy came around to score but that was ruled an error not an inside-the-parker.. this one the announcers actually said it was an inside-the-park home run and there was no error on the play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelvarr Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 What I hate is when you have a legitimate triple (or double), maybe hit to the LC or RC gap, and the OF mishandles it and has an error, allowing for 1 extra base, and then the game doesn't give you any hit, rather just the error. Makes me so !@#$%^& mad, because it should be scored a double or triple with a 1-base error....I mean, the ball landed in the gap...there is no way not to credit some kind of a hit.

C-Boz Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 The game also rules line backs at the pitcher an error even if the guy never touches it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shef87 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Yeah what does "Runner 3rd out" mean when you look at your previous at-bats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiberger Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Yeah what does "Runner 3rd out" mean when you look at your previous at-bats? It means that the player who was at-bat didn't complete it because a runner who was on base was either thrown out or tagged out for the third out of the inning.
