Reply to "Mr Game Changer Dad"

Our HS Game Changer account is run by the local radio station announcer who calls the games. Our official stats are kept by a separate scorekeeper (the official scorekeeper when we are home) and they can often be different just on opinion. I enter the stats into Max Preps. The radio guy used to use his GC stats on the air, but started going with the MaxPreps #'s last year. Usually, the stats are close enough. Had one this year that sucked, though. In one of the first games of the year, we had a game where our #2 hitter hit a line drive to third that F5 dropped. It was a hard shot right at him and by the time he corralled it and threw to third, it was too late. GC guy gave him a hit. Our official sk gave it an error. No big deal, right? Well, he ended the season tied for the school record for hits in a season. After the season, the kid was going over the GC account and discovered this and asked about it - didn't cause a stink.

All the newspaper stories have been written and all have given him credit for tying the record. I have leaned towards reviewing the play (all of our games are on video). I would want the HC to chime in if I review. The kicker? The record he tied belongs to our HC.
