- Patch for 10.2.0 - 4 January 2023
This patch has the following bug fixes: Fixed a bug that prevented users from changing a league from "no DH" to "DH", and still being able to play games with either the as-played lineups or by entering a valid DH lineup. Fixed an earned/unearned issue when a runner reaches base on an error and a double play takes place during the inning. Bug fix to ensure that players that played on more than one team do not show up more than once on the "games to watch" section of the Season Overview. When using the "Active Rosters" feature, the CM automatically sets the opening day rosters before the first games are played. This release allows the user to override this default so they can choose to set the opening day rosters instead. This is done via a new option in the Active Rosters option group. NOTE: the version number will remain at 10.2.0 after the update is installed.
- Patch Released for 10.2.0 - 27 December 2022
This patch addresses the following in version 10.2.0: Fixed a bug that sometimes allowed a game to start with a disabled player in the lineup after a deactivation transaction. With this fix the lineup will now be marked as invalid with messages explaining the lineup issue and the user will not be allowed to start the game without fixing the lineup issue. Fixed an issue that allowed the user to enter a SB Board Game Companion command without specifying what runner should steal. Updated the WP and PB Board Game Companion commands so that you can specify that a trailing runner is out on the play. (e.g., PBR1X** passed ball, runners advance two bases, runner on first is thrown out at third by the catcher). The Board Game Companion Cheat Sheet was updated to reflect this change.
- Bug fix for 10.2.0 Released - 22 December 2022

- Update Released! - 3 October 2022
This release contains the addition of six shortcuts for Season Ticket Baseball. Season Ticket Baseball is a fun, and relatively inexpensive card and dice game. The shortcuts that have been added are: 1B+: single, runner on second scores, runner on first to second 1B++: single, runner on second scores, runner on first to third 2B+: double, runner on first scores F+: fly out, runner on third scores F++: fly out, runner on third scores, runner on second to third L/(R1!/R2!/R3!): line out, runner doubled off Of course, these commands can be used regardless of the card and dice game you are using and they can be quite handy. The Board Game Companion Cheat Sheet has been updated to included these shortcuts. I realize that a majority of the recent updates have benefited just Board Game Companion users. However, the next release will contain updates that apply to the user interface and will ben…
- Minor Update Released - 30 September 2022
This update contains the following bug fix and update: Fixed a bug with the STL2BE command that was causing it to ignore any * added to the command. Updated the wild pitch and passed ball commands so that you can specify *, **, or *** to have runners advance 1, 2, or 3 bases, and add OUT to the command to have the lead runner thrown out by the catcher when advancing (e.g., WPOUT** is a wild pitch, runners advance two bases, lead runner gets thrown out). Play Ball!
- Update Released - 17 September 2022
This update contains the following updates and bug fixes: Updated the sacrifice hit fielder’s choice command so that when SAFE is included in the command, the lead runner is safe and the batter is awarded a sacrifice hit (e.g., SH5FC4SAFE). Updated the line drive command to allow outfield positions (e.g., L8). Updated the stolen base command (SB) to support a CS/K double play (strike-em out throw-em out). This can be done by adding K to the end of the SB command when there are fewer than 2 outs, and you are stealing second, third, or second and third (e.g., SBR1XK). Fixed a scoring bug with the groundball (G) command so that RBI are no longer awarded on a groundball double play. Fixed a bug in the Board Game Companion that prevented a run from scoring when the runner reached base on a fielder's choice. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions and for your help investigating bugs. I still…
- Update Released - 12 September 2022
The following updates and bug fixes are included in this release: Fixed a bug that prevented non-DH as-played lineups when playing at a DH park. Updated the ground ball command in the Board Game Companion so that it allows different base runners to advance a different number of bases (and more than one base) on a ground out. For example: G463R22 is a double play (4-6-3), runner on second scores on the play. See the Board Game Cheat Sheet for details. The ground ball command now allows users to specify which runs scored should count as an RBI. See the Board Game Cheat Sheet for details. The ground out command now supports a G93 putout (right fielder throws the batter out at first). Fixed a bug that caused the GIDP statistic to not get recorded when using the Board Game Companion. Fixed a bug that caused the pitcher's Game Score to be calculated incorrectly during a game (the calculation…
- Minor Update - 19 August 2022
This release updates the 'foulout' command used by the Board Game Companion. Specifically, this command now allows you to specify an error on a foul out. For example, FOE5 results in a foul ball hit to the third baseman, and the fielder drops the ball (error). Runners hold on the play. NOTE: the version number will remain at 10.1.9 after the update.
- Minor Update Released - 15 August 2022
This release contains the following updates: Updated the Single/Double/Triple command to allow the user to specify how many bases a runner attempts to advance when thrown out. This can be accomplished by including the number of bases after the X (e.g., R1X3). For example, the 3 following X in the command 1B R01 R1X3 E7 specifies that the runner on first will be thrown out trying to take third on a single. Added pitcher's BF in the pitcher's lineup popup. This can be helpful for tracking pitcher fatigue. Also, a reminder that you can see the pitcher's lineup popup by pressing 0. Play Ball!
- Minor Update - 10 August 2022
The following updates are included in this release: You can now include NORBI1, NORBI2, and/or NORIB3 in the Singe/Double/Triple command when there is an error on a hit. This will specify that runners scoring from first, second, and/or third do not count as an RBI. The error should be the last item in the command. Added two new commands: DROPKOUT (batter out at first on a dropped third strike ) and DROPKOUTU (batter out at the plate on a dropped third strike ). Added a NOTES section on the last page of the Board Game Companion cheat sheet with additional information about the Board Game Companion. NOTE: the version number will remain at 10.1.9.
