Counted, not described
Results reach the table -- the run totals are exact, 86 and 50 for the Rangers, 57 and 61 for the Firedogs -- so every game is being entered. The host keeps results and scoreboard pages alongside the standings.
No line score, pitcher of record or account of any game appears anywhere.
A score reported once on a High Cheese league page becomes the standings, the club's record and the player's line at the same moment, which is the rest of the job those run totals are already halfway through.
