Question
Guest James T Rogers
High School game, visiting team scored 4 runs in the bottom of the 1st but the scorekeeper only showed 3, no one said anything. She had 2 on scoreboard and then changed it to 3. ( 3-0, 2 outs, runners on 2nd & 3rd, pass ball, runner from 3rd scores, the runner from 2nd delays then tries to reach 3rd & is tagged out for 3rd out). Later in the top of the 5th with the score 9-0, the visiting team coach called time & had his scorekeeper & home scorekeeper get together to change score to 10-0. The home scorekeeper would not change her book/score. The coach then approached the umpire for help but was informed that he let it go past the bottom of the 1st so it was up to the home book to change or keep the current score. So 9-0 at the end of 5. Final score 24-2 in 7 innings. Was the umpire correct that he couldn't change the score ?

Upon further reflection -- this seems -- well, at least unlikely.

I've been on both ends of blowouts. As a coach, I take this as an opportunity to try things out, where mistakes aren't nearly so critical or magnified. These kids get limited game time through the c

I know. I just find it a little hard to think that the V didn't also get ahead by 10 runs in the sixth and then scored 13-15 runs in the 7th. I recognize that it's possible and that stranger things
