When choosing Standing Options/Overrides, use the following rules: For division games select Affects League and Division Standings For non-division games against COYBL teams select Affects League Standings Only For tournaments or games with non-coybl teams select either Affects League Standings Only or Does Not Affect Standings If you want the game to show on your team s overall record select Affects League Standings Only

Entering Scores & Player Statistics The best way to enter scores and stats is using the Edit Stats tab, not the quick score tab. Quick Score does not allow stats such as pitching and more.
After clicking on Edit Stats, you will see this screen. Enter score inning by inning or just in the last column. You can add an inning or innings or remove an inning as needed. The only stat required is the Pitch count and that is done in the column designated by the PC. Check the box next to the player name and then enter the PC# they threw. See the Pitch count rule on the rules page for more on this. Make sure to click save at the bottom of the page or the data will be lost.
Once all stats have been entered, click Save Stats at the bottom of the screen
This is what your tracker should look like: All Teams must have this on their team page. It must be updated in 24 hours so your opponent knows who is eligible and who is not. If they are not eligible it will show up in RED in the Status column and will show when the next scheduled game they can pitch in.
