The Play Cell

Each play cell represents one batter's plate appearance in one inning. It's the fundamental unit of the scorecard.

Examples

These are rendered using the actual rendering engine from the live site. Same code, same colors, same stroke widths. If the rendering changes, these examples change.

Hits

Scored Runners

When a runner scores, the diamond is filled with 3 diagonal hatch lines (not a solid color). Home runs get a solid black diamond instead.

Rules:

• Balls: count B and * pitch codes
• Strikes: count C, S, F, W, T, capped at 2
• Foul balls after 2 strikes do not increment

Third-Out Notch
