What does the asterisk, arrow and tilde mean on the pitcher's card? I must be missing something. I see the little key on the right of the card (asterisk = HR, arrow = K, tilde = walk) but for example column 5 number 3 results in BB or ~K. Why put the tilde if you're going to put the K anyway. I'm guessing there's a reason.

is that because the result is on the pitcher's card instead of the hitter's, therefore the outcome will always favor the pitcher when there's a conflict on his card that could go either way? (IE: if you have a power hitter at the plate who also strikes out a lot and the Col roll is a 2 and the result has either a strikeout or a HR, the HR applies because it's on the batter's card?)

I was huge Strat-o-Matic fan when I was younger and I ran across this article. I'm really interested in your "Master" hitter & pitcher cards. Is there anyway you could share the cards? Or share with me how you made them? I read through your example. I was wondering how you would handle the same role if the pitcher met both your criteria? For example he's a 4 in Ks AND a 1 in the hitting department would the batter, Polanco, strikeout or get a single?
