“I’ve been covering baseball for over a quarter-century and a lot of that time has been spent sitting next to the official scorer at one ballpark or another. Baseball’s rulebook is about as intricate as it gets when you’re talking about the major sports, especially when it come to the OS section,” said Scott Orgera, longtime sportswriter and Vice President of SCHOW, Inc. “Some of my favorite press box discussions – or arguments – have been about these very rules, and I always felt like the everyday fan would enjoy being a part of that. When the idea of Hardball Rules was first conceptualized, the goal was to bring them into that world but also to make it fun and competitive at the same time.”
