Starters/Subs
Before the game will allow plays to be
entered, the players/positions for each
team must be assigned (Figure 12).
1. If DakStats Baseball does not
automatically open to the screen
for entering players, select the
Subs tab or press [F5].
2. Select the appropriate team.
3. Type in the jersey number of a
player, or click the player in the roster list below.
4. The player’s name and position should automatically fill in. Select the player’s
position from the drop down menu if necessary.
5. This screen is also used to enter substitutions later in the game. Click the jersey
number of an active player, and then type in the jersey number of the substitution, or
click the players to sub from the roster list below.
6. Click the ENTER button or press [Enter] on the keyboard to save the starters/subs.
At Bat
When a player is up to bat, users can keep a detailed account of balls and strikes.
1. Select the At Bat tab or press [F4] (Figure 13).
2. Click the type of pitch that was thrown or press the appropriate underlined key:
 Ball
 Strike – Select Swinging, Looking, or Bunting as needed.
 Foul
 Decrement Ball/Decrement Strike – subtracts a ball or strike from the count
 In Play – Refer to Batted Ball.
 Passed Ball
 Wild Pitch
 Balk
 Ball No Pitch
 Strike No Pitch
Note: Ball No Pitch and Strike No Pitch are used in illegal procedures to
add a ball or strike to the count without updating the pitches thrown.
Pitchers may be penalized by touching the baseball to their face; batters may
obtain a strike if they take too long getting in the box.
