Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
A little role-reversal here:
"Alright, check THIS out. 7th inning and I'm up 3-1. CPU leaves its reliever in to lead off the inning. Seems like an AI bug, but whatever. This guy lines a comebacker (what else?) off my pitcher for a single. Then I magically lose control and hit the next batter and the tying run's on base. Then, their #2 hitter (who could be a cleanup hitter on most teams) miraculously gets a sacrifice bunt down to move the tying run into scoring position. I even looked it up - this guy's had 1 sacrifice bunt for his career in real life. Bull ****.
So at this point I know what's going to happen and sure enough the next guy lines a single up the middle to tie the game. That sends the game into a 13 inning marathon and I eventually lose on a walkoff HR.
This game sucks."

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
Seriously - the way they rate the relievers in this game is so far off its not funny. I come out and throw 7 innings strong, 9Ks, 2 hits, no runs. But JV has thrown 111 pitches, and his energy is down, so I gotta go to the pen, even though I know it's impossible to pitch with them, and I'm only up 2-0. So I go to the pen, and promptly give up 7. Why is it so hard to pitch with relievers when the starters make it look so easy?

How many PS4s would get broken if you gave up a HR to Colon?
This why I don't fret too much when rare things happen in the Show. Any thing is possible in sports!Comment

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
I don't know if I should report this as a bug or a glitch, or if BB/9 & Discipline has been patched to create more walks,
but yesterday I had Bryce Harper get 7 PA's yet had 0 AB's.
He was walked 6 times & HBP'ed once. And this was with Quick Counts OFF.
I could understand if I drew 2 or 3 walks with QC on, but six walks? Something's fishy for certain.T-BONE.
Talking about things nobody cares.Comment

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
Playing as the anemic Yankees lineup last night.
I hit 5 solo HRs in 2.2 innings, it was all or nothing!
No reason that Hicks and Gardner should be hitting bombs with their < 60 power ratings. I guess I need to lower power sliders down to 0 for human players!

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
I was called for a balk and then the tying run came around to score on a single. Stupid comeback AI
- Kansas City Royals
I had a one run lead in the 8th with Andrew Miller on the mound who hasn't given up a run all year and the first batter of the next inning hits a homerun to tie the game. Stupid comeback AI

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
No idea how the following hasn't been addressed:
Major Glitch Alert guys!! I was hitting JT Realmuto with a runner on first and drop an absolute bomb to center. For some reason, Marcell Ozuna was tagging on the play. But ok whatever. I pressed X to skip the HR trot and then I look at the score. 1-0?!?! WHAT?! How is this EVEN POSSIBLE!!!
I looked in the box scored and the stupid game gave the first baseman credit for a put out and only gave Realmuto an RBI single. This game is SOOOO BROKEN

Easy now...
From the other point of view....
No Matter how much I decrease human pitcher control, I always feel like I have perfect location on all of my pitches when using analog pitching. I almost had more K's than total balls last game!!Chicago Cubs

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
Remember that glitch from '13 where all the pitches were down the middle and you could just tee off? I did that tonite with Thor at the plate. Seems the glitch is back since I hit 2 HR and had 4RBI and was just killing foul ball after foul ball on my third plate appearance. Maybe instead of addressing some phantom bullpen thing in a patch, maybe you fix that middle of the plate stuff, huh, SCEA? Pitchers shouldn't be able to do that.Comment

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
Hanley Ramirez tried to bunt with 2 outs and the winning run (the blazing speed of David Ortiz) on 3rd in the 9th, after Papi had just tied the game.
This AI is so broken.Comment

Re: Watching MLB; If "This" Would Have Happened In The Show Thread
I'm beating the Angels the whole game and then all of a sudden they take the lead with a 5 run 7th inning. Suddenly my pitchers can't get anyone out or hit the strikezone.
In the bottom of the 8th I finally had the come back code work in my favor with my own 5 run inning to take the lead going into the 9th. Starting to think all this scripted stuff is crap.
.....Pujols 3 run shot in the top of the 9th to give them the lead back. I bet that in the bottom of the 9th I won't be able to hit anything as their reliever will be lights out.....this game is horrible!!!
Mariners / Angels.....just endedComment
