Baseball Game Score

Game score in baseball is a metric of the strength of a pitcher in a game with a starting value of 50.

Starting with 50 points, add one point for each out recorded (so three points for every complete inning pitched), two points for each inning completed after the fourth and one point for each strikeout. Then subtract two points for each hit allowed, four points for each earned run allowed, two points for each unearned run allowed and one point for each walk.

Formula

QuantityVariable["GS", "Unitless"] == 50 - QuantityVariable["BB", "Unitless"] - 4*QuantityVariable["ER", "Unitless"] - 2*QuantityVariable["H", "Unitless"] + 2*QuantityVariable["IP4", "Unitless"] + QuantityVariable["K", "Unitless"] + QuantityVariable["OUTS", "Unitless"] - 2*QuantityVariable["UR", "Unitless"]
