I'd like to see these two team stats changed to reflect an accurate total.

A starter gets credit for a shut out if he pitches a complete game. The total of individual shut outs becomes the team record. Shut outs where the bullpen is involved are not counted in the team record. They should be, since it is still a shut out win.

Something similar happens with double. A player gets credit for being involved in a double play and the total of those credits becomes the team record. This is misleading because up to 3 players can be credited with a double play.

What I'd like to see for the team record is the number of double plays turned, not the total number of players credited with a double play.

It also appears that 2 kinds of double plays are not being counted. The outfield fly and throw out of a runner, and the strike em out throw em double play. Can these be added?

Ideally we'd match the way the MLB statistics are kept. So over time, we'll try to improve the statistics accounting, however there are quite of few other things higher on the priority list.

Thanks,

Steve
