he surely did if i was talking about official box scores, but i wasnt, because there's a difference between an official record versus commonly used vernacular which has been around for decades. "SO" looks ridiculous to me and always will. this is the only site out of 5 where posters use it for lines including such super stat nerdy sites like baseballhq.

Your Prescriptivism seems purely subjective; I understand if the "K" has been introduced into the lexicon for quite some time; but there is no "choice war" going on between which ought to be used. Unless there is some linguistic authority going around being *****-like? When all there is is normative consensus, I don't see any problem where formality and informality can co-exist, linguistically. Anyways, I used both so ha!

I use both all the time.

But If I'm post lines, I just use whatever the site is using.
