Sorry for the redundandy

    I know, I KNOW this has been touched on before, but I can' t find the thread. I'm looking for the stat program that colleges use for football. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

    Also, another dumb stats question: Pitcher sets down 27 straight, it's a perfect game; but, what if, there's a foul pop that is dropped by, say, the third baseman; so the game ends, 27 up, 27 down; no baserunners. Is it still a perfect game? Or just a no-hitter?

    2. It's a perfect game. That dropped foul ball doesn't matter. Nobody reached base.

    An error is recorded, though, on the dropped foul ball.

    Most of the colleges use Stat Crew - www.statcrew.com.

    A 'redundandy' is any man who dresses very well, but is prone to wearing the same outfit two days running.

    I had a response, but you blew it away.

    Crap.

    A dropped-foul error is only recorded retroactively if the batter reaches base.

    That's funny. I thought it was a person who repeatedly feels the need to point out simple errors that were nothing more than typos, perhaps to make them feel better about themselves.

    I don't think that's right. I believe the error is charged for prolonging the at-bat.

    That is correct. From 10.12 of the MLB rulebook:

    Or to crack wise.

    One of the two. But you may be right.
