Merge discussion - Full count

[edit]

Admittedly I am a baseball neophyte but wouldn't it make more sense to merge full count into this article? A full count is just a subset of a count, so I don't see a reason for separate articles. – ukexpat (talk) 14:35, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely support a merge. The two items are intrinsically related, a redirect would bring readers here easily, and neither really has a large article, so there's enough information to support a merge. A "full count" itself isn't really encyclopedically notable to have its own article, but the count itself is. — KV5Talk14:52, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of these two articles has any sourcing at all. Spanneraol (talk) 15:00, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge, ensuring that the "full count" redirect linked to the appropriate section of this page (not just the top). umrguy42 15:44, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support - A "full" count, by any other name, is but a count.Neonblak talk - 14:37, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another Source

[edit]

I don't have time for now to look through it, but here's an article of interest to this page:

Timmerman T. "It Was a Thought Pitch": Personal, Situational, and Target Influences on Hit-By-Pitch Events Across Time. Journal of Applied Psychology. May 2007; 92(3): 876-884. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.56.162.93 (talk) 02:23, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Full house

[edit]

Regarding these edits: I could not turn up any references to the terminology "full house" to refer to a 3–2 count. This glossary from Softball New Zealand, the governing body of softball in New Zealand, didn't list it. Although it might be a colloquial term used by some, I'm not clear there is sufficient widespread use to include it in this article. isaacl (talk) 15:45, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it should be sourced if included. I haven't run across anything to that effect either. EricEnfermero (Talk) 16:55, 13 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I can't find anything on it either. Our glossary of baseball, however, has an entry for it, which defines it as a full count. I would consider removing the first definition from its entry if nothing can be found on the term. Seattle (talk) 03:09, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Let me check for accurate sources first on this, but I believe "full house" is an outdated term from around the Gehrig days. Garchy (talk) 18:07, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Count (baseball)Count (baseball and softball) – Counts exist identically in baseball and softball. Unless we're considering softball a variety of baseball (which we very well could), the parenthetical should include the two separate sports in which this concept exists. Dennis C.
