Dominican Republic vs Puerto Rico 1st game

	A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I	J	K	L	M
1	Puerto Rico vs. the Dominican Republic line-by-line results. (You do not need to record all this info when you play, this is to help you look up numbers on cards to learn the game)
2
3	We list the pitcher in Column A, and how much endurance he has left in column B reducing it by 1 every time he allows someone to get to 1st base or to score. At 0 you need a reliever.
4	The batter is listed in Column C. We then list what we rolled on the 2-sided dice (column D), whether or not that was in the pitcher's PB range to keep it on his card (Marichal 2-8)
5	or on the batters card (roll of 9-12). In column F we listed what the two 8-sided dice read with the colored dice determining 10 through 80 and the white 1 through 8.
6	The number we rolled in F shows the item listed in G from the batter or pitcher card. The 20-sided die is not necessary, but if used it tells you where the ball was hit if there is
7	an out and if players are on base this lets you know if there was a double play, or if runners advanced or stayed on their base, etc. If playing the advanced game with fielding info on
8	cards, then a roll of 18 or 19 would be used to check for errors, and a roll of 20 with men on base could lead to unusual plays or clutch defensive or offensive plays. However, we
9	are playing this game with the basic rules, meaning the 20-side die is only used to determine where an out was made. In Column I we describe what happened on each play to
10	help you understand the game, and then we use the last four columns to keep track of how many outs there were after the play, and what bases people were on and the score.
11	When the line is BOLD it means the Dominican Republic was batting, and when it is not then Puerto Rico was batting. Here are the results of every roll in the game we played:
12
13	Pitcher	SR or RR left	Batter (bold = RD, not bold = PR)	2-12 Roll	Card of Pitcher or Batter	11-88 roll	Result on card	20- sided (option)	Describe what happened	Outs	On Base	RD	PR
14	Juan Marichal	13	Roberto Alomar	5	Pitcher	55	Out	3	In Tier 1-Simple level this is simply Out, but we played this as a Tier 2-basic game which does use the 20-sided die to determine where the ball was hit and if runners advance, so the "3" on the 20-sided die tells us this is a grounder to 3rd base and if a man had been on first it would be a double play. However, the 20-sided die only matters if there are less than 2 outs and someone is on base, so all you really need to know is the result in column G, that this is an OUT.	1	None	0	0
15	Juan Marichal		Orlando Cepeda	5	Pitcher	53	Out	17	Out (if using 20-sided die, ground out)	2	None
16	Juan Marichal		Roberto Clemente	2	Pitcher	23	BK	9	Out - if anyone on base, then a BK (balk), WP (wild pitch) or PB (passed ball) on the pitchers card advances all runners one base and batter continue to hit. However, with noone on base it is an out, and the "9" on the 20-sided die makes it a lineout.	3	Top of inning over	0	0
17	Ed Figueroa	15	Cesar Cedeno	6	Pitcher	86	Out	17	Out (if using 20-sided die, ground out)	1	None
18	Ed Figueroa		Hanley Ramirez	7	Pitcher	57		17	Out (if using 20-sided die, ground out)	2	None
19	Ed Figueroa	14	Vladimir Guerrero	10	Batter	52	HPB		HIt by Pitched Ball	2	1st
20	Ed Figueroa		David Ortiz	8	Batter	87	Out	16	Ground out, runners advance but 3rd out since we are playing Tier 2-Basic game. However, if we were playing Tier 3-advanced this would have been a single, because an 87 (or 88) is turned into a single if the batter is left-handed (like Ortiz) and the batter is right-handed (like Figueroa), or if the pitchers is left-handed and batter is right handed. However, if we were player Tier 3 - Advanced, then a left-hander gets a left-hander out on rolls of 11 to 15, and a right-hander gets a right-hander out on 11 or 12, but a swtich hitter is never effected either way.	3	1st inning over	0	0
21	Juan Marichal		Carlos Correa	5	Pitcher	86	Out	9	Line out	1	Out
22	Juan Marichal	12	Juan Gonzalez	10	Batter	56	W		Walk	1	1st
23	Juan Marichal		Bernie Williams	4	Pitcher	23	BK		Balk, Gonzalez goes to 2nd base and Williams still at bat	1	2nd
24	Juan Marichal		Bernie Williams	8	Batter	45	K		Strikeout	2	2nd
25	Juan Marichal		Mike Lowell	4	Pitcher	42	Out	16	ground out, runners advance but 3rd out	3	Top of inning over	0	0
26	Ed Figueroa	13	Manny Ramirez	9	Batter	56	W		Walk	0	1st
27	Ed Figueroa		Albert Pujols	9	Batter	77	Out	19	This is the 1st time the 20-sided die actually mattered in this game. If we were playing Tier 1 - Simple game, then this would be an out and Ramirez would still be on first with one out. Since we are playing Tier 2 - Basic game, we do look at the chart on the first page and see that a Grounder runners advanced.	1	2nd
28	Ed Figueroa		Albert Pujols (If we had played Tier 3 -Advanced instead of Tier 2)	9	Batter	77	Out	19	If we had instead chosen to play Tier 3 - Advanced game then an "19" says to check for error, but since we did not calculated defense for the Puerto Rican and Dominican Republic teams, we do not have Error ratings on the sheet. However, if you look at the player cards below that can be used instead of sheets, and the chart below on the advanced form to determine where the ball was hit and that players error rating, then you can see how the Advanced game works. In this case, just to see what would have happened, I rolled the two 6-sided dice and the 20-sided die again and it was a 7- which on the error chart below says "SS," so I looked up the Puerto Rican shortstop Carlos Correa fielding average to see that he would have been an E3 if I had calculated them for these players, meaning a roll of 1-3 on the 20-sided die is an error, and a roll of 11-13 would be a 2-base error. However, the 20-sided die actually game up "7" so even in the Tier 3- Advanced game this would have been a ground out for Pujols with Ramirez advancing to second base and the 7 would only have resulted in an error if the fielder chosen by the dice had an E7, E8, E9 or E10.	1	2nd
29	Ed Figueroa	11	Robinson Cano	10	Batter	34	2b		Double, M. Ramirez scores from 2nd which also lowers Figueroa's endurance (SR) two - one for the new runner and one for the run scored - so from 13 to 11 (if he gets to 0 a reliever must pitch)	1	2nd	1	0
30	Ed Figueroa	10	Edwin Encarnacion	5	Pitcher	12	1b		Single, Cano goes from 2nd to 3rd	1	1st & 3rd
31	Ed Figueroa	9	Gary Sanchez	10	Batter	62	W		Walk, loading the bases	1	Loaded
32	Ed Figueroa	7	Cesar Cedeno	9	Batter	18	1b		Single scoring Cano	1	Loaded	2	0
33	Ed Figueroa	5	Hanley Ramirez	7	Batter	14	1b		Single scoring Encarnacion	1	Loaded	3	0
34	Ed Figueroa	3	Vladimir Guerrero	12	Batter	24	1b		Single scores one run. Because Cedeno and H. Ramirez are both fast (OBR B) they tried to take an extra base by rolling one die. The roll was a 4, which only advanced runners if there are 2 outs. Because they could not advance they only take one base and bases are still loaded.	1	Loaded	4	0
35	Ed Figueroa		David Ortiz	10	Batter	62	W		Walk, Cedeno scores	1	Loaded	5	0
36	Ed Figueroa		Manny Ramirez	8	Batter	11	1b		Single, H. Ramirez scores and because Guerrero is only average speed (OBR C) he does NOT try to score from second base. Figueroa has now run out of endurance (SR) because his column B shows the runners allowing 1st plus the runs scored totalled more than his 13 starting endurance. Edwin Diaz is chosen to relieve, and starts with 4 because his RR (endurance when a pitcher relieves instead of starting) means he can allow only up to 4 baserunners plus runs before he must be replaced.	1	Loaded	6	0
37	Edwin Diaz	3	Albert Pujols	6	Pitcher	55	W		Walk, Guerrero scores	1	Loaded	7	0
38	Edwin Diaz		Robinson Cano	8	Pitcher	64	Out	9	The result is OUT, and the 20-sided die of 9 on the chart indicates Cano lined out, so no runners advance.	2	Loaded
39	Edwin Diaz		Edwin Encarnacion	8	Pitcher	31	K		Strikeout to finally end the inning, but 7-0 Dominican Republic lead.	3	2nd inning over	7	0
40	Juan Marichal		Ivan Rodriguez	4	Pitcher	45	Out	7	Grounder to 2nd
41	Juan Marichal		Eddie Rosario	6	Pitcher	84	Out	3	Grounder to 3rd - if someone was on first base this would have been a double play grounder 5-4-3
42	Juan Marichal	11	Roberto Alomar	6	Pitcher	18	1b		Single		1st
43	Juan Marichal		Orlando Cepeda	5	Pitcher	83	Out	20	Since we are playing Tier 2- Basic game, the 20 is a flyout to center field and the inning is over. If we were playing Tier 1 then we would not use the 20-sided dice and it would just be an out and we would no care where it was hit. However, in Tier 3 - Advanced games, then anytime a roll of 20 occurs with a man on base it completely changes what the other dice mean based on the yellow shaded area below. Because the 20-sided die is a "20," the "5" (a 1 and a 4 on the two dice) indicates the Centerfielder has a chance to make a great defensive diving catch and there are instructions although the 83 on the random roll on that chart is too high for him to make the catch and therefore you would ingnore and roll roagain for Cepeda's at bat. Other possibilities in a Tier 3- Advanced game can be a chance for the batter to have a clutch extra base hit (if 2-4), chances for other fielders to make great plays (5 to 9) or very unusual plays like rainouts, injuries, ejections or weird baserunning plays.		Top of inning over	7	0
44	Edwin Diaz		Gary Sanchez	6	Pitcher	32	K		Strikeout
45	Edwin Diaz		Cesar Cedeno	5	Pitcher	35	K		Strikeout
46	Edwin Diaz		Hanley Ramirez	6	Pitcher	58	K		Strikeout		3rd inning over	7	0
47	Juan Marichal		Roberto Clemente	8	Pitcher	86	Out	2	Grounder to 2nd in our Tier 2-Basic game. If we were playing the Tier 3 Advanced game, then this would turn into a double for Clemente even though it was on the pitcher's card. The only two players this would happen for are Clemente or Cepeda because the averages runs scored in the league the years they played were about 0.4 runs per game less than average, so they were hitting in the modern "dead ball" error, and a chart further down tells you if a player from one year where it was hard to get hits is in fact can change an out on his card OR THE PITCHERS CARD to a double on an 86. Some in very dead ball years, get to change additional numbers from outs to doubles, with the runner on first always going only one base. In this game though we annouced we would play Tier 2 rules, not Tier 3, so it is just an out.
48	Juan Marichal		Carlos Correa	4	Pitcher	73	Out		Ground out (lead runner out on chart, but with noone on base, batter out)
49	Juan Marichal		Juan Gonzalez	7	Pitcher	28	K		Strikeout		Top of inning over	7	0
50	Edwin Diaz	2	Vladimir Guerrero	8	Pitcher	11	1b		Single		1st
51	Edwin Diaz		David Ortiz		Steal option				Because Guerrero is a good base stealer, he tries to steal second base by rolling one 6-sided die. The roll is a 2, and the chart says on a 2 a SP AA, A or B steals, so he takes second base, while David Ortiz stays up to hit		2nd
52	Edwin Diaz		David Ortiz	7	Pitcher	71	Out	18	Ground out, runner advances to 3rd (in advanced game check for an error on an 18 or 19, but in the basic game they are both groundouts with runner advancing)	1	3rd
53	Edwin Diaz		Manny Ramirez	12	Batter	41	K		Strikeout (note this was one Lowell's card and his home runs go from 31 to 37, so this roll was just a little too high for a home run)	2
54	Edwin Diaz	0	Albert Pujols	10	batter	28	2b		Double, Guerrero scores, and the baserunner and run scored knock the final two numbers off Diaz' RR to make it 0, so he must leave and Willie Hernandez relieves.		1st	8	0
55	Willie Hernandez	5	Robinson Cano	6	Pitcher	72	Out	14	Flyout to right	3	4th inning over	8	0
56	Juan Marichal		Bernie Williams	5	Pitcher	23	BK	19	Grounder, if anyone was on base the BK would have advanced them and batter would still be at bat, but with noone on base a BK, WP or PB is an out.	1
57	Juan Marichal	10	Mike Lowell	9	batter	21	1b		Single, Marichal's SR is lowered 1, but he still has 10 left so in no danger of running out of endurance.	1	1st
58	Juan Marichal		Ivan Rodriguez	9	batter	53	Out	4	Rodriguez top HBP (hit by pitch) is 52, so the 53 is his first out number. The 20-sided die roll of 4 says double play on the chart (3-4-3), however it says OBR A, B or C safe and under Rodriguez name you will see his OBR is C - so even though the 1st baseman throws to short to start a double play, Rodriguez beats the attempted double play and is now on 1st with 2 outs.	2	1st
59	Juan Marichal		Eddie Rosario	4	Pitcher	56	Out	2	With 2 outs or noone on the 20-sided die does not really matter and you can just record as an out. A 2 would have been a double play on the chart, but since there were already two outs it would just be a grounder to 2nd base who throws to shortstop for the force out.		Top of inning over	8	0
60	Willie Hernandez		Edwin Encarnacion	5	Pitcher	88	Out	20	Flyout to center
61	Willie Hernandez		Gary Sanchez	6	Pitcher	62	Out	1	Grounder to short
62	Willie Hernandez		Cesar Cedeno	4	pitcher	71	Out	1	grounder to short, inning ends and Hernandez has gotten all 4 batters out so his endurance (RR) is where it started at 5		5th Inning over	8	0
63	Juan Marichal	9	Roberto Alomar	8	pitcher	12	1b		Single
64	Juan Marichal		Orlando Cepeda		Steal option				Because Alomar is a great basestealer (SP: A) he tried to steal 2nd base and the die was "4" meaning only an AA (like Cedeno) could have stolen. He stays at 1st. He would have only been out on a "6" but on a 4 or 5 he simply cannot get a jump and stays on base with Orlando Cepeda still batting.	0	1st
65	Juan Marichal	8	Orlando Cepeda	3	pitcher	22	1b		Single and Alomar to second base. Because he is a fast baserunner (OBR B) a roll of the 6-sided die is used to let him try to go 1st to 3rd - however the roll is 5 so he can only make it to second. On a roll of 1 or 2 an OBR B takes the extra base, but on a 6 when taking an extra base you roll again and a 1-3 are out but a 4-6 is safe.	0	2nd
66	Juan Marichal		Roberto Clemente	7	pitcher	38	Out		Fly out to left field	1
67	Juan Marichal	6	Carlos Correa	8	pitcher	11	1b		Single, because Alomar is a fast baserunner (OBR: B) he attempts to take the extra base and on a roll of 2 he makes it home However, Cepeda and Correa cannot take an extra base on the throw because they are both OBR: C which only advances on a roll of 1 (or a roll of 4 if 2 outs). Puerto Rico has their first run of Marichal in the 6th and have knocked his SR down to 6.			8	1
68	Juan Marichal	2	Juan Gonzalez	10	batter	37	HR		HOME RUN. The 37 is within the Gonzalez' 31-40 home run range and so this 3-run homer brings Puerto Rico to within 8-4 and the three runs plus new runner knocks 4 off Marichal's SR to get him down to 2 in column B.			8	4
69	Juan Marichal	0	Bernie Williams	12	batter	34	HR		HOME RUN. The 34 falls within Williams home run range of 33-36 to make it 8-5, and the new runner plus run scored use up Marichal's last 2 SR to give him 0 and require him to leave the game. Because the next three pitchers listed (P. Martinez, Rijo and Severino) would normally start the next 3 games, we look for a reliever and bring in Kelvin Herrera with an RR of 4 endurance.			8	5
70	Kelvin Herrera	3	Mike Lowell	7	pitcher	14	1b		Single, and Herrera is knocked down to RR 3.		1st
71	Kelvin Herrera		Ivan Rodriguez	4	pitcher	82	Out	12	Flyout to left field finally records a second out of the big inning for Puerto Rico.	2
72	Kelvin Herrera		Eddie Rosario	9	batter	37	HR		The third home run of the inning makes it a one-run game and knocks Herrera out of the game. Rafael Soriano is picked to relieve next.			8	7
73	Rafael Soriano		Roberto Alomar	9	batter	64	Out	11	Flyout to left finally ends the inning		Top of inning over	8	7
74	Willie Hernandez	4	Hanley Ramirez	3	pitcher	16	1b		single is the first baserunner of Hernandez, lowering his RR to 4
75	Willie Hernandez		Vladimir Guerrero	12	batter	77	Out	3	The "3" on the out chart is a double play, 5-4-3, and only an OBR A or B beats the throw back, and as an OBR C Guerrero is double off.	2
76	Willie Hernandez	3	David Ortiz	11	batter	17	2b		double		2nd
77	Willie Hernandez	3	Manny Ramirez	6	batter	72	Out		Fly out to right - note that the 14 indicates a runner of OBR A or B would have advanced from 2nd to 3rd base if there were less than 2 outs, but since Ortiz is an OBR C he would not have advanced.	3	6th inning over	8	7
78	Rafael Soriano		Orlando Cepeda	10	batter	63	Out	3	Grounder to 1st	1
79	Rafael Soriano		Roberto Clemente	11	batter	83	Out	13	Flyout to center field	2
80	Rafael Soriano	3	Carlos Correa	7	pitcher	36	W		Walk. Note Soriano's strikeouts go up to 35, so the 36 is in the walk range of 36-44 and lowers his remaining RR to 3
81	Rafael Soriano		Juan Gonzalez	10	batter	55	K		Strikeout. Note if Gonzalez K range was one lower than his 41-55 then this would have been a walk.	3	Top of inning over	8	7
82	Willie Hernandez		Manny Ramirez	9	batter	45	K		Strikeout	1
83	Willie Hernandez	2	Albert Pujols	4	pitcher	17	1b		Single		1st
84	Willie Hernandez		Robinson Cano	8	pitcher	52	Out	5	Lead runner out - the "5" roll is a double play grounder but an OBR A, B or C beats it out, and Cano is a C - so he is safe but Pujols was out at 2nd.	2
85	Willie Hernandez	1	Edwin Encarnacion	10	batter	55	W		Walk, 1st and 2nd base with 2 outs		1st & 2nd
86	Willie Hernandez		Gary Sanchez	3	pitcher	45	Out	20	Flyout to center for another scoreless inning for Hernandez	3	7th inning over	8	7
87	Rafael Soriano	2	Bernie Williams	9	batter	23	1b		Single		1st
88	Rafael Soriano		Mike Lowell	6	pitcher	54	Out	1	Double play 6-4-3 - the "1" on the 20-sided die is always a double play if a runner at first - noone can beat a perfect double play grounder to short so 2 outs, nobody on.	2	None
89	Rafael Soriano	1	Ivan Rodriguez	9	batter	22	1b		Single		1st
90	Rafael Soriano		Eddie Rosario	8	pitcher	34	K		Big strikeout by Soriano with go-ahead run at the plate	3	Top of inning over	8	7
91	Willie Hernandez		Cesar Cedeno	6	pitcher	64	Out	9	Line out - big out for Hernandez since Cedeno is the only SP AA in this game so could have stolen 2nd with a roll of 1, 2 3 or 4, and only been out on a 6 (would have held base on a 5). Puerto Rico did not want the fastest basestealer in the game to get on and start stealing bases to get an insurance run for the Dominican Republic.	1
92	Willie Hernandez		Hanley Ramirez	5	batter	88	Out	7	grounder to 2nd	2
93	Willie Hernandez		Vladimir Guerrero	5	pitcher	45	Out	8	groundout	3	8th inning over	8	7
94	Rafael Soriano		Roberto Alomar	9	batter	55	Out	5	Grounder	1
95	Rafael Soriano		Orlando Cepeda	8	pitcher	41	W		Walk. Soriano's final RR is gone, so he must be replaced. Jeurys Familia comes in to relieve.		1st
96	Jeurys Familia		Roberto Clemente		Steal option				Cepeda uses his SP B to try to steal second wtih the tying run to give Clemente a chance to drive him in with a single, however the roll is 4 meaning he stays at 1st base.
97	Jeurys Familia		Roberto Clemente	7	pitcher	88	Out	10	Infield fly, so Cepeda stuck at 1st base.	2
98	Jeurys Familia		Carlos Correa	3	pitcher	73	Out	15	Fly out to right to end the inning - the Dominican Republic holds off the furious rally by Puerto Rico to win 8-7 with Juan Marichal getting the win and Jeurys Familiar getting the save.	3	GAME OVER	8	7
99
100	Dominican Republic does not need to hit in the bottom of the 9th inning, because they secured the 8-7 win through Puerto Rico's 9th inning at bats.
