Talk:Plate appearance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] At bat
At bat is defined in terms of plate appearance, and plate appearance is defined in terms of at bat. What shall we do about this circular definition? Seems to me that place appearance is the more fundamental term, even though it is less commonly used. I think my modifications take care of it. Did I miss anything? --Locarno 21:45, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Pinch hitter
If the pinch hitter comes in with two strikes and then subsequently strikes three, I would think the place appearance is charged to the person the pinch hitter substituted for. WilliamKF 23:58, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
