I scored for my son's Little League game last weekend, and it was a stressful experience. Mainly because I had never used the app before, it was also somewhat tedious, as I had to update positions every half inning. I wish it were all pre-loaded, as that would have significantly reduced my stress. It was nice being the person everyone asked what the score was all the time, as no one else was paying as close attention to the game.

Oh no, you gotta do it in one of those spiral bound scorecard notebooks. App? Pshh!

The hard part about scoring little league is the rules are different and, in my experience, the apps don't account for it. So you just gotta flub it in some way to make sure you record the important bits.

A big one is pitch counts. That should absolutely be correct for safety. But if you're at an age where it goes kid pitch -> coach pitch, you gotta figure out a way to do this and keep an accurate total.

Does little league limit pitch counts per pitcher nowadays? I played as a kid, but mine aren't into it and I haven't been to a game in 20+ years.
