Cipriano has not played 3rd base this season
ReplyDeleteI show Cipriano played 3B on 5/11/09 against Jupiter going 1-4 with a 2 run homer.
ReplyDeleteJim is right, I got the games played at 1B and 3B switched. I fixed it. The 3B game was May 11th. Sorry, but thanks for catching the mistake.
ReplyDeleteActually he played 1st base that entire game May 11th and it was never officially changed. They had Sexton as the 1st baseman and he was at third as always.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, because the recap has it all as Sexton at 1B and Cip at 3B, examples:

Just looking at the 8th and 9th, those plays really couldn't have happened unless Sexton was at 1st and Cip at 3rd. Unless they didn't miscode the position but the names? Did offensive stats then get switched?
I don't know so I can't say you're wrong, but if it was backwards, that needs to be corrected. At a minimum their defensive stats are now wrong for the year.
Was anyone else there that can confirm that Sexton played the whole game at 3B and Cip at 1st?
offensive stats did not change, the at bats, hits and what have you were correctly given to each player. Sexton would probably prefer one less error on his stats.
ReplyDeleteIf I am correct and not wrong about this 1st & 3rd thing how about a couple tickets to the All Star game.............After all did any one else notice it?
ReplyDeleteI don't have any tickets, but you were the only one who noticed. I'm suprised the Stone Crabs haven't gotten this fixed IF you are right. And I'm starting to think you are BTW.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the FSL All-Star game, we may have some coverage. Nothing final yet, but it looks good.
