Format Table, Chat with Cerebro regarding table formating

You didn’t do anything wrong here—the behavior difference is because v15 is interpreting tables differently than v14, and my last batting table had two issues:

The 1908 Little River row was indeed missing from the batting data you pasted (StatsCrew doesn’t list any 1908 batting line there), so the blank/1909 jump you’re seeing is real.
v15 is not showing the raw markdown (pipes, brackets) the same way v14 did, and your existing tables are using TheBrain’s internal :(table="..."): syntax that overlays on top of the markdown rows.

Let me address both pieces clearly.

1. Why you “can’t see the markdown brackets” in v15

Looking at your current notes for Bob Hassler, v15 is storing tables like this:

\|Yr|Team|GP|PA|AB|H|2B|3B|HR|BA|OBP|SLG|OPS|TB|:(table="column-widths:-1,..."):

\|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
\|1909|Wichita Jobbers|17|40|40|3|0|0|0|.075|.075|.075|.150|3|
...

Key details:

The :(table="..."): part is TheBrain’s v15 table formatting tag.
v15 renders these as formatted tables; it does not show you the raw markdown pipes/brackets in WYSIWYG mode the way v14 did.
So you’ll see the grid, but not the underlying markdown characters.

That’s expected in v15 from the context I see; it isn’t something you can toggle from my side here.

2. Fixing the batting table so all rows show clearly in v15

Your current batting section in the notes is:

## **Batting:**
### Bob Hassler – Minor League Batting

Batting – Minor Leagues (StatsCrew)

\|Yr|Team|GP|PA|AB|H|2B|3B|HR|BA|OBP|SLG|OPS|TB|:(table="column-widths:-1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0;justification:default"):

\|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
\|1909|Wichita Jobbers|17|40|40|3|0|0|0|.075|.075|.075|.150|3|
\|1909|Lyons Lions|37|106|106|20||0|0|.189|.189|.189|.377|20|
\|1910|Lyons Lions|28|84|84|13|3|0|0|.155|.155|.190|.345|16|
\|1912|Salina Insurgents|13|37|37|6||||.162|.162|.162|.324|6|
\|Tot||95|267|267|42|3|0|0|.157|.157|.169|.326|45|

Two small cleanup suggestions (still no 1908 row, because there isn’t one in the source):

Ensure there is no completely blank line between the header row and the separator.
Make the totals row label consistent (Totals instead of Tot if you prefer).

Here is a v15-friendly replacement block you can paste over the entire batting section (keeping exactly the TheBrain :(table="..."): syntax):

## **Batting:**
### Bob Hassler – Minor League Batting

Batting – Minor Leagues (StatsCrew)

\|Yr|Team|GP|PA|AB|H|2B|3B|HR|BA|OBP|SLG|OPS|TB|:(table="column-widths:-1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0;justification:default"):
\|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
\|1909|Wichita Jobbers|17|40|40|3|0|0|0|.075|.075|.075|.150|3|
\|1909|Lyons Lions|37|106|106|20||0|0|.189|.189|.189|.377|20|
\|1910|Lyons Lions|28|84|84|13|3|0|0|.155|.155|.190|.345|16|
\|1912|Salina Insurgents|13|37|37|6||||.162|.162|.162|.324|6|
\|Totals||95|267|267|42|3|0|0|.157|.157|.169|.326|45|

That should:

Render as a proper table in v15.
Show all five rows including the totals, with no “mysterious blank” line.
Still be consistent with the way your Service and Pitching tables are styled.

4. If you really want a 1908 batting line

If you believe Hassler should have 1908 batting data (often pitchers do), there are two paths:

Confirm from StatsCrew or another source and paste the exact 1908 row; I’ll integrate it so the table becomes:

\|0|0|0|:(table="column-widths:-1,0,0,0;justification:default"):
\|1908|Little River|...|
\|1909|Wichita Jobbers|...|
...

If no batting stats are available but you still want to note that he played in 1908 at Little River, add a short note under the table:

Note: No batting line is listed for 1908 (Little River) in the available StatsCrew data. He is documented as pitching for Little River that season.

That keeps your stats table “honest” to the source while acknowledging the gap.

If you’d like, I can also:

Simplify the service and pitching tables in your notes so their headers and formatting are consistent with this cleaned-up batting table, using the same v15-friendly syntax you’re already using.

If the “header not visible” problem was due to a theme overriding header colors, this plain table (no theme line) should render with normal text colors and a readable top row.

If you still want to apply a theme later, do it after confirming this basic version looks correct.

Glad that worked and that the header is readable now.

Any time you run into another StatsCrew table (manager, fielding, park records, etc.), just paste the raw text and tell me what columns you want to keep—I’ll turn it into a v15-friendly table like that one.
