Hitting is so broken, Max Scherzer 11k through 4 innings...can't get a bat on a ball to save my life!

Pretty sure the 3rd one was "Just Late, Chased" up and out of the zone too.

Edit: Yep. Yellow dot (which was shrinking at the time I screencapped) is the HR pitch.



Reminder that this guy is a 48 PWR vs R, 42 vs L (for now) in The Show.

scooter goes yard 4 times? hr's still need one more patch. scooters no Horner, Mays, Schmidt, Hamilton, Gehrig, Hodges, Colavito or Delgado or Green. At least that last patch kept scooter from hitting any of them 600 feet.

Home runs in this game are definitely still broken. Playing my Yanks Franchise and I couldn't believe my last homestand. In six games I hit 18 home runs, with 450 and 495 foot homers in the same game! All those bombs led me to outscore my opponents (Orioles & Red Sox) by 47 runs! Guess I'll just push Human Power all the way down to 1...

1) I'm about ready to concede this power surge is the new normal, had a guy batting 9th hit 3 hr's.

2) Show 15 I bought the steel case but never looked at the regular edition cover with Puig.
finally got around to getting it the once over, and I'll be damned. Sonys censors dropped the ball like that one time Fleer did with Billy Ripken. this time its Puig let two birds fly :headshake:

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

For some reason, CPU keeps throwing meatballs and I keep hitting them hard... I don't feel challenged at all in this year's game. The last game in my Twins franchise, I had 28 hits (!!!) against the Mariners... you know, the Mariners don't have good pitching, but they are not this bad... 28 hits.... are you kidding me SDS!!!??

SDS keeps catering to casuals ruining the game by making hitting easier and easier. Has anyone figured out how to make CPU pitching smarter?


Oh wait, the difficult level was somehow set to Dynamic Difficulty and I was hitting on Beginner mode... nvm

Why is Anthony Rizzo batting lead off?

- Mets

Mets: "Cory Seager goes off for 3 long balls last night!"

Scooter Gennett: "Hold my beer"

Super Slo-Showmotion is broke. Hit a homer with Puig, his homerun trot took damn near a minute. I'm afraid the Time Police are going to want to do away with rounding the bases after homeruns and instead the hitter just heads back to the dugout. Sound preposterous until you look at what they did with intentional walks this year.

I'm out there pitching a gem against the Giants with Teheran. Granted, they have a poor offense, but the game is scripted and my team committed THREE errors in one inning that led to 5 runs. I eventually lost 6-3. Two inning ending double plays resulted in 0 outs due to a dropped ball and a poor throw. The first one would've resulted in 0 runs on the inning.

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Can we please do something about the insane amount of wild pitches and advancing on them? I had my backup catcher behind the plate and Ottavino on the mound. Not only could my catcher not stop a beach ball let alone O's slider but then the Dodgers unloaded the bases on 2 wild pitches. Please patch the damn catcher blocking and the wild pitches!

PS. The catcher never ever gets the ball back to the pitcher on a WP. Damn, I've had enough of losing these close games!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

Yes, let's ban all the wild pitches!

My batting lineup was all messed up by the AI as well. Same bug, I had Bautista batting 1st for the Jays.

On top of that, saw the Cards recall Grichuk from Triple-A then set him up batting 4th and on top of that he hammered the longest HR (478ft) in Bush Stadium III history. Fix it !!!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread

popped in a game with the Dodgers and Padres. guess the player personality for Show 18 got a trial run using managers instead. Roberts and Green squabbling over stolen signs. Great. You can steal a base but dont steal signs. Somebody really oughta write down those unwritten rules.
