B. Sheets vs Pedro

great game...
look the line
MIL 0 7 1
NYM 1 9 1 in 13 innings..

the game was a CLASSIC pitching duel! only decided in the bottom of the 13th with a doble by Loduca scoring Reyes! ..
P.Martinez 8.2inn 4h 0r 0er 1bb 11k (about 110 pitches)
B. Sheets 7.1inn 5h 0r 0er 2bb 8k (about 85 pitches, i though the AI could let him a bit more...but they aways pull them earlir than i think is realistic..)

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

OK boys this is a 20 game stat check with these sliders with the late change on throwing accuracy bumped down 3 games ago (and it had a great effect) My sliders in the signature are final for me. I thank everyone for helping and testing. I hope people can use them to enhance their enjoyment of the game.

Yanks (9-11 ,2.5 gmb)
Stat--League Rank
.281 BA--13th
78Runs--27th
40 2B--17th
2 3B--25th
19 HR--27th (my hitters just started getting hot)
8 SB--16th
42 BB--30th (I am a hacker, but in the mix with other teams)
159 K's--26th
9 E--9th (The throw accuracy change has put 3 errors in the last 2 games!! I think I am set)
4.33 ERA--18th
23 HRA--17th
45 BBA--5th
118 K's--26th

Some player highlights
Arod--.385 5HR 17RBI 8BB 10K
Jeter--.301 0HR 9RBI 2SB 7BB 19K
Giambi--.267 4HR 13RBI 11BB 24K
Damon--.256 1 HR 5RBI 6SB 4BB 16K

All of the other hitters are average and I lost Sheff for 4 weeks to a calf strain.

Unit 0/2 5.40 ERA
Moose 1/2 6.27 ERA (Missed his last start with a funny arm in his warmup session)
Chacon 1/1 3.54
Wang 1/3 6.98 (The D-Rays lit him up for 8Runs in 2.2 innings)
Pavano 1/0 3.16
Small 1/0 4.26
MO 2/0 1.93 5/6 SVs

Like I said I am happy with those for 20 games. I don't think there will be more changes, but I will let you know if there are.

I promised an update after 40 games...Here it is. I am very please except for my record.

Yanks (18-22 ,4.5 gmb)
Stat--League Rank
.278 BA--16th
182Runs--25th
89 2B--18th
4 3B--25th
40 HR--27th
19 SB--15th
92 BB--29th (I am a hacker, but in the mix with other teams)
298 K's--27th
22 E--16th (I found my settings!!!)
4.07 ERA--9th
41 HRA--15th
92 BBA--2nd (I am in a battle with Oakland, Atlanta, and the White Sox, for the league lead)
216 K's--30th

Some player highlights
Arod--.372 14HR 35RBI 19BB 26K
Jeter--.305 2HR 21RBI 4/7SB 11BB 37K
Giambi--.236 6HR 15RBI 20BB 36K
Damon--.262 2 HR 10RBI 13/17SB 9BB 24K

Bernie is on fire, hitting over .400 over the last 20 games and playing alot of RF with Sheff still out. Posada is horrible, hitting .240 with 1 HR and 9 RBI. Everyone else is about where you would expect them.

Unit 2/3 4.41 ERA
Moose 1/4 6.78 ERA (He's killing me!!!)
Chacon 2/3 4.14
Wang 1/4 6.78 (I sent him to Columbus for 3 starts--He starts game 2 in the upcoming Mets series)
Pavano 2/0 2.77
Small 2/0 2.98
Wright 0/0 3.17 (3 great starts in place of Wang)
MO 3/1 1.78 10/12 SVs

Sturtze has an ERA in the 4's, while Fahrnsworth is in the 5's, but pitching better. The two lefties (Myers and Villone are great). I called Dotel up in mid-May and he has an ERA in the 4's after 4 innings of work.

I just need to start winning and get my offense more consistant.

EDIT--I played one game of the Mets series. Unit vs. Glavine...A wild game that I end up winning 13-8. That's my first big scoring game in a while. Hopefully, it's a sign my bats are waking up.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

You changed something on the sliders?

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

Hey Favre, could you please post the pitch speed you are using in your franchise along with the amount of doubles and triples? Thanks man.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

Hey Joe--What's up man? The sliders are the same...I posted the final ones a few weeks ago, they are in my signature. I just promised I would do a stat update after 40 games.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

Hey man--I use default speed. With the wide view, I am more than challenged. Like I've said before, my video game reactions have gone the way of my real life baseball reactions--slow. I don't know I hit 30 years old and I am breaking down, ya know?

Anyway...the doubles and triples are on that post--89 doubles, 4 triples. If you want some individual guys, let me know. Sheffield was a doubles machine before he got hurt. Talk to you soon.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

Hey JOE, no images in your sigs, just a heads up.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

I'm using the Orioles and I just started my franchise over going with the actual schedule. I'm 0-2 right now. Lost 3-2 and 14-2. My pitching was absolutely horrible. It's a challenge if you don't have a good pitching staff. They were all around the plate the last game. I use the meter and catcher view. They are the most realistic sliders I've used on HOF mode though. And I really like all of what Farve has posted in his franchise stats. Seems really realistic. The key is good pitching, not hacking at everything, and capitalizing on the opportunities that come to you.

cool cool, i'll definately try these suckers out for a few games, need to get used to the game and learn patience and adjusting to the wide batting view and outfield pitching view but i'll use my cubbies and post some scores and such hopefully tomorrow or friday but definatley sometime this weekend, i'm sure i'll have some time

I don't use the wide batting view and outfield pitching view. I go catcher for both. Just don't like it from the outfield and lower view in hitting. It's hard enough to hit from the catcher view.

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks

well got a game in using what is posted in Favre4vr's first post and wow i'm just shocked in a good way

Played a game Cubs(me home) vs Marlins

Score 2-1 10 innings me

Zambrono went 8 innings 4 hits no runs one walk and 8 k's 94 pitches
Bob Howry went 1/3 innings 3 hits 1 run 1 K
Jerome Williams went 1 and 2/3 innings with 1 K got the win

Dontrelle Willis went 9 innings, 15 K's 2 BB's and 6 hits
Joe Borowski went 1/3 innings 3 hits 1 K Loss

so great game pitchers duel the whole way until the nineth were both teams score a single stolen base on a wild pitch and then RBI double for marlins get the a run

Bottom of the ninth Hairston Jr. singles, D-Lee singles and then A-Ram doubles in D-Lee i then get three straight outs :'(

Top half of tenth went clean with williams in for me

Bottom of the tenth Ronnie Cedeno doubles, and then Henry Blanco doubles him in (pinch hit)

Greatest game ever for me on a baseball game and patience is the key if i was a little more patient i would have got to there pen but wow awesome sliders man!!

will repost/update post with more updated scores and more games
