boxscore
Condensed game record
A boxscore is a statistical summary of a sporting event, typically presented in tabular form.
It records key performance metrics for each player—points scored, assists, rebounds in basketball; hits, runs, errors in baseball.
Originally printed in newspaper sports sections, boxscores now appear online within minutes of a game's end: I checked the boxscore to see how many strikeouts the pitcher had.
Also spelled box score.
