Re: [baseball-databank] Re: Games played

No.  I found 8 Phillies pitchers from 2004 with Gp > Gb.  Cormier was 5 low (per Retrosheet.org his P games were correct but his batting games were low).  Wagner and Myers were 3 low. Abbot was 2 low.  4 were 1 game low.

2. Batting.G < Pitching.G 2,521 cases (All but 6 of
these are 1997-2004. 2005 has none of these cases)

I believe these are mostly all American League
pitchers. If the pitcher batted (such as in an
interleague game, or where team lost the DH) or he
Pinch Ran/Pinch Hit/played another position, then he
got a batting game from 1997-2004. On games where he
didn't bat, he did not get a batting game, but a
pitching game only. Ideally either 1973-1996 & 2005
should be consistent with that, or else 1997-2004
should all be "re-done" to be consistent with
1973-1996 & 2005.

Hello all, Looking through the archives, I see that John asked the question I was about to ask, but I don't see where it was ever answered. Basically the...

Tom: Don't know if I have a "solution" but: 1. Batting.G = Pitching.G 28,885 cases. Should be no issue with these. 2. Batting.G < Pitching.G 2,521 cases (All...

I went thru the dailies at Retrosheet for a couple of these Phillies Ps--it looks like the missing Gb are for games on the road against AL teams so it appears...

Whew, OK, had me worried for a second. DH games are the problem, for AL AND NL pitchers. I don't exactly remember the source of the data those years (Sean or...

... For recent seasons, mlb.com is clearly only reporting games in which the pitcher actually appeared in the batting lineup. However, for earlier seasons, the...
