Hudda Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've been going over my box score reports from my franchise file and I can't figure out what occured during the game to cause the player to have not completed his plate appearance. What are examples of incomplete plate appearances? (hoping this may kickstart my memory about what happened) Thanks in advance.

xcrunner4623 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 \ said: A sac bunt or sac fly Both actually count as plate appearances. One is a ground out and the other is a fly out. I at least think I am sure. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30014-incomplete-plate-appearances/#findComment-423512 Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsox Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Actually they are considered as plate appearances. They are just not counted towards an at-bat. * EDIT - definition of a plate appearance: AB + BB + HBP + SF + SH + times reached on defensive interference Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30014-incomplete-plate-appearances/#findComment-423528 Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanzarelli Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 What the guy wanted to know was this: In the MVP boxscores, the only time it will say the guy did not complete a plate appearance is when a base runner ends the inning trying to steal or gets picked off causing the guy that was up at bat when the inning ended to lead off in the next inning. Whoever brought up Sacs and stuff went completely off topic.

palmer08 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Yes. For calculed at-bats it's : TPA - (BB-HBP-SF-SH-times reaches...). Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30014-incomplete-plate-appearances/#findComment-423552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
