Two walks for Swindle

Working off some rust, I assume.

Strange question

While I’ve always thought “W” made more sense for “Walk” this is the first time I’ve seen it. Is there a website(s) using that now?

by ecocd on Apr 13, 2009 10:51 AM CDT reply actions

I think I see it quite a bit, but don't know where.

I tend to use “BB,” so I don’t know why I went with “W” here.

Also, cheese.

This minor league splits site I use sometimes uses "W"

I was trying to figure out what site it was that used it, then I remembered.

ha

indeed I do. I think part of the reason is that “IBB” both looks weird and is longer than necessary. Since I want to use “IW,” it would be awkward to use both “IW” and “BB” instead of “IW” and “W”.

Then again, I made that decision years ago, so it might have just been random.

Also, cheese.

Somehow this is fitting, but there should probably be some stats on there

It didn't work

but the point is that Josh Butler’s page isn’t working for some reason.

now it is

thanks for letting me know.

Also, cheese.
