  • Click Play!
  • Scoring the game is not too bad.
    • For Substitutions, lineup and pitching, click on the field view on that specific player and it will bring you to substitutions.
    • For Stolen Bases, courtesy for catcher, passed balls, wild pitches, click on the runner, make sure you click the next base and select how the base runner changed or advanced.
    • There is an undo button at the bottom if the wrong selection is made.
  • When the game is done, click 'exit'

    • Synchronization, change to Any Internet, change to Send
    • Bottom left, there is an export button, click Export then OK

  • Digital scorebook, digital stats. Standings will update.  The only thing I will need is text confirm of score (just in case of discrepancy) and also, I'll know the game is final. I need to log in and change the game from "in progress" to final in order for standings to update.  You can only import games within a week of the actual game start time. 

  • The other neat thing, is tell your fans at home to download IScore Central and search your team, and they can watch the game through that app just like watching on espn gamecast.
