Re: MLB 09: The Show Patch Released 4/27/09 - Impressions and Discussion Here

I know we're well beyond this, but if I steal with a full count and 2 outs, I shouldn't be able to A) take home and score a run, B)get credited with a stolen base, and C)BE THROWN OUT.

This was present in last year as well.

I'm confused. Whats the outcome of the pitch?

Correct about B & C, but if you are on third you could "take home and score a run" on a walk, hit or error.

Only if the other players we are over there to with all of the fans. I like baseballs when the sun comes out at night and don't if everyone still thinks about 5 outs before the snowflakes.

I am assuming he means on a third out. (btw... there are also other ways to score... such as a wild pitch, passed ball, balk, catchers interference etc.. though I believe the latter is considered an error)

? Are the bases loaded - otherwise why would you steal on 3rd base? If the bases aren't loaded, you attempt a steal and the hitter walks or gets a hit then B & C could be doable...A could happen if the hitter walks with the bases loaded.

It should be present by that logic...

I think he's using the logic that on a full count with two outs, you start the runner. But if he's on 3rd...it's reeeeeally not neccessary, and could actually be dumb, if the pitch is ball four and the catcher tags him out, haha. If the bases are loaded, then there's really no point, as anything that doesn't result in the batter being out (or one of the other runners being forced), the runner on 3rd scores.

Correct, 2 outs, full count - ex. runner on 1st and 3rd, and you press the "advance all runners" as the pitcher delivers, and the pitch is a ball.

You can still be thrown out, as well as score on this play.

No. Once a batter walks, the player on the base in front is "given" that base. If I have a runner on first, and 2 outs, full count, and 'steal' - for some reason they will still throw to 2nd?

Well you shouldn't send the runner on 3rd, that makes no sense as there is no force and he can technically be thrown out as much as he could technically steal home and score.

It will happen sometimes, yes - but that doesn't mean he's out. My example was dependant on the bases loaded.

The point is, the computer DOESN'T do anything about it, because it goes directly to the 'walk" cut scene.

ohhh ok...I don't think I am alone in not knowing that was what you meant.

I have never tried that so I have never witnessed it but that is a problem.
