COMMENT
|
The string can be too short to have either 3 total 2's or 4 total 1's, because the batter can be out in various ways, or on base in various ways (hit by pitched ball, balk) before the at bat ends with strikout or walk. A proper subset of A007931.

EXAMPLE
|
a(14) = 222 represents a strikeout in 3 consecutive pitches. a(15) = 1111 represents a walk in 4 consecutive pitches.
2221 is the lexicographically first element of A007931 not in this sequence, since after 3 strikes the batter is out, and there is no 4th pitch in the at bat.
11111 is the lexicographically first element of A007931 without a 2 not in this sequence, since after 4 balls the batter walks, and there is no 5th pitch in the at bat. Technically, this sequence contains the null string (the batter is out without a pitch being thrown, in several ways) but that is not properly represented as a string of 1s and 2s in OEIS.
