http://www.beyondtheboxscore.com/story/2006/7/30/102656/648

Team Options (wins, runs, etc) and Player Options (R, RBI, IP, SV, etc) sounds like a fascinating game to develop.  I agree that it would also be fascinating to see how people perceive the action.  If only work could stop getting in the way of sports.
