Just a little piece of advice, if whoever is running your teams game changer struggles with differentiating between what is a hit and what is an error and the difference between wild pitches and passed balls, the numbers you see will be highly skewed. In some cases they are down right completely wrong and misleading.
There are some stats that are “almost” fool proof like walks and strikeouts but coaches, I’d be very careful in making decisions based on what GC shows. Use your eyes.
It’s a great tool no doubt but man can it stir up some drama!!
