How do you calculate at bats?

A batter is credited with an at bat for every plate appearance except: 1) base on balls 2) hit by pitch 3) sacrifice fly 4) sacrifice bunt 5) catcher's interference If an inning ends while a batter is in the middle of an at bat (eg., a base runner is thrown out stealing for the 3rd out) no at bat is credited and the batter is the first batter to bat in the next inning. If the batter is replaced before the at bat is completed, no at bat is credited unless the batter was replaced with two strikes and the replacement batter strikes out. The strikeout is credited to the batter who was replaced.

Who was the first major league baseball player to play every position in a single game?

Bert Campaneris of the Kansas City Athletics on September 8, 1965. Campaneris' positions by inning: 1st inning: shortstop 2nd inning: second base 3rd inning: third base 4th inning: left field 5th inning: center field 6th inning: right field 7th inning: first base 8th inning: pitcher 9th inning: catcher The game, played against the California Angels in Kansas City, went 13 innings before the Angels won 5-3. In Campaneris' one inning of pitching, he gave up 1 run on 1 hit and 2 walks. He also struck out a batter (Bobby Knoop). He made an error in right field and the Angels one run scored in the 6th inning was unearned. He was replaced in the 10th inning by catcher Rene Lachemann.

Did Yogi Berra ever catch Warren Spahn?

Not in the majors or minors. Berra and Spahn were teammates at the beginning of the 1965 season with the New York Mets. Berra caught two games that season, May 4 and May 9. The starting pitcher in both games was Al Jackson. Yogi did pinch hit in a game Spahn started, that being in the 8th inning on May 5. He pinch hit for catcher Chris Cannizzaro and grounded out. Jesse Gonder replaced Cannizzaro as catcher for the 9th inning. Berra was released on May 17.

What does a softball catcher say before a inning?

Well, I'm a catcher, and I normally remind everybody that there are no outs and the play is at first, and might mention that we should try for a quick inning. Other than that the only other thing I can think of would be if I knew a slap hitter or a power hitter was coming up to bat, I would let the defense know.


When can you replace a catcher?
