Re: Epic 1st game!! 15 innings! Walkoff

Cool, I haven't had any HRs so far.
Granted I play with the Giants... so it's tougher :P (though on real life the Giants are actually 2nd on MLB in HRs, go figure it out)

I'm only in my 3rd game, but I've got about 6 HR's already, (2 of them GS's). And yes, like I said before, I use zone analog and pitch speed at 10. lol

Whoa!
First The Show game I played since The Show 09.

Tigers vs. Giants (me).
And it carried on till the 15th inning, when Buster Posey hit a walkoff single off the RF wall!!

What a great game to start myself on baseball video games again!
I got some screenshots below.
I also got a video from the last hit

I'm pumped up!

BTW, took me a bit to get used to quick count, and ended up giving lots of walk.
I chose Experienced User settings, so it's Veteran difficulty.

Thanks for sharing Guga! Fantastic game, I enjoyed the screenshots and vid.

Re: Epic 1st game!! 15 innings! Walkoff

Strange. My first game was one of the best I have ever played as well. Cueto had a no hitter through 7 and lost it to Jay leading off the 8th. Was playing quick counts (how did we ever play video game baseball before this) and feared I was going to have to pull him in the middle of the no hitter because he had 95 pitches through 7. After the no hitter was broken up Cueto finished the inning and I brought Chapman in the 9th and he was hit with a come backer in the leg. Managed to close out the Cards 2-0.

Question for you, how were you able to pitch Chapman? My son and I were playing last night, and he wanted to put Chapman in, however he's not on the roster (due to update) as he's still on a rehab assignment, I would guess he'll be added on the next roster update. Is there somewhere to go to play with default rosters as opposed to the update? Couldn't figure it out last night and we were antsy to get a game in before his bed time.

Check the AAA roster, in previous games player on the dl would show up on AAA team instead of MLB. You can move him up in the edit roster option.

Ahh, didn't think about checking the rosters for the minor league teams. I'll give it a look this evening, thanks!

EDIT: just went and found the 4/7/2014 roster update notes (http://forums.theshownation.com/show...248#post206248) and see that Chapman was indeed moved from 'Reds Closer' to 'Reds Minors'...
