Rules/Regulations for interpreting
Roster and announcers must be set at the top of the program. Batters must go to the plate in order.
Every time the score changes it must be updated. Same thing for outs.
Baserunners move according to most likely scenario. Sacrifice flies only for runs are possible.
Ground-into-double-play can only happen if there is another player on the bases.
Every three outs, the team switches between offense and defense.
After every six outs, a new inning starts. If nine innings are not played, the game must rainout.
The score must be correctly calculated at the end and if the Phillies do not win, the program has a 100% chance of crashing.
