Franchise:
- Pick-offs - Many times runners are held in place, even when you hit the button to return. Many times runners get called out even when they are safe on pickoffs..........especially at 2B. I've been getting picked off 2nd a ton in this game and I don't even take a big lead AND this is with really fast runners that should have no problem getting back. The game keeps "freezing" these runners or it will call them out even when they are not.
- Game does not pitch-out (ever) after 2 ball counts. Game rarely (if ever) pitches out on 2 strike counts. Makes it very easy to manipulate the CPU with steals.
- Hitting is all over the place this year. I have many games where I score 10 plus runs and many, many games that are 0 runs and the CPU simply will not
reward........well..........anything. It's feels like a time suck when this happens and it happens WAY too much. It seems to matter not who the opposing pitcher is as even mediocre pitchers often dominate - (hall of fame level on pitching/hitting)
- the pitchers get way too many hits in this game especially in big situations. Haven't noticed this recently, but noticed it a lot in the months prior.
- the CPU rarely if ever makes any errors. Almost every game they won't make any errors at all, and I will have wild pitches and an error or two or no errors.
- the CPU seems exceptionally hard to strike out this year at times. Great pitchers often don't get the numbers they should on a consistent basis.
