| Dec. 7, 2008 Ohio wheels | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: 2009 Tournaments I'm sorry SSUSA staff. You have to get the scores posted in 2 weeks max. In my job, if you don't have your work done, you don't go to conventions. Get on the ball. ISSA and SPA do a way better job of that. |

| Dec. 2, 2005 Ohio wheels | Topic: General and miscellaneous Discussion: All Tournament Selection Try this guys. For all tourney teams, first calculate the batting average. Then adjust for defense in the following way: a hit 'stolen' by great defense is just like another hit at the plate. Example: If a shortstop has 3 hits in 5 plate appearances, plus he makes a truly great play on a grounder in the hole at short to steal a hit, then adjust his average to 4 for 5. But if that same shortstop makes an error on a routine ball, subtract 1 hit. He is now back to 3 for 5. The theory is this: either you get a hit or you steal one from the opposition. Both count. Defense then gets its due. But you have to make ALL the routine plays or else the errors count against you. As a defensive guy, I get tired of .600 hitters who are lousy fielders getting tabbed all tournament when ther make errors or let balls drop in front of them. |
