Frequently asked questions

Yes. Select Custom in the Game Type dropdown to choose innings, DH, Short Fielder, Extra Hitters, run limits, open innings, a mercy rule, runners, starter re-entry, starting counts, and two-strike foul rules. Save a named preset on this device for future games. Existing games keep their own rules; the Rules view, live viewers, and printed scorecards show that snapshot.

Yes. Choose Softball in Game Configuration, then enable Allow Short Fielder (SF), Allow Extra Hitters (EH), or both. Both options default to off. Short Fielder adds a tenth defensive player; Extra Hitters lets each team add multiple batting-only players with Add Extra Hitter during lineup setup.

A Short Fielder (SF) bats and plays defense as the tenth fielder. An Extra Hitter (EH) has a place in the batting order without a defensive position. You can enable either option independently and use different numbers of Extra Hitters on the two teams.

Yes, and this is the part most people worry about. Undo reverses the last play you recorded. To fix something further back, tap the cell on the scorecard and re-enter that plate appearance.
