What does a baseball scorekeeper do?

Baseball scorekeepers track runs and other statistics during a baseball game. Your specific job duties depend on your employer. Professional and some collegiate baseball leagues and teams hire official scorekeepers to travel with them to all of their games and keep accurate game records for all players on the team. Local or club teams occasionally hire scorekeepers as well. You need to complete league training and must follow league standards for assigning a particular statistic to a player. Scoreboard operators are slightly different; in this role, you enter runs and other vital stats into a scoreboard manually or through a computer. You also make sure to update the scoreboard after each of the innings.
