    -The Tex 0 Sea 5 means the Rangers have scored 0runs & the Mariners have scored 5runs

    -The Up sign means top of the 7th (or whatever ending it is) & the down sign means bottom if the 7th (or whatever ending it is) so if its the top of the ending the Rangers would be playing offense & if its the bottom of the ending then the Mariners would be playing offense

    -The dots are how may outs the team playing offense has (they will be colored if they have a out, for example there might be 2 yellow dots & 1 back one that would mean the team has 2outs)

    -The numbers you see that go 1-2 mean how many balls/strikes there been

    for example 1-2 would mean the player at bat has got 1ball & 2strikes

    The numbers following the teams represent the number of runs each team has scored.

    The up and down sign indicates which half of the inning the game is in. If the top half is highlighted, they're at the top, or first half, of the inning. If the bottom half is highlighted, that means they're at the bottom, or second half, of the inning.

    The three dots should represent how many outs the batting team has against them.

    The other numbers indicate how many balls and strikes have been pitched to the batter during that at-bat.
