    My First

    I'm 31 and have been playing different baseball games since age 7 and today I had a little spare time so I decided to play a game in my franchise. With Rich Hill I threw my first ever perfect game. I had come close to throwing no hitters a few times going 7 plus before giving up a hit and walking batters. But finally today I threw my first no hitter and it was a perfecto. So props to me LOL

    Re: My First

    Yesterday I was in the playoffs of my 2nd 10 game franchise season with the sox. It was Buerhle vs the Angels, and i had a no hitter going with 1 out in the 9th and I gave up a bloop single down the RF line =(

    Buerhle is a beast though, somehow he developed a 97mph fastball in my franchise lol. I accidently beaned a guy too in like the first inning (i didnt even think I hit him, it was kinda iffy) So i was pretty damn close to a perfect game as well. I was so pissed i lost the no hitter i really wanted the achievement. I wasn't even sure that I had the no-no going because i had cut scenes turned off so it doesnt show the box-score between innings and i couldn't remember if i gave up a hit or not earlier in the game, but the amount of batters I would have faced matched up. Sure enough after i gave up the hit i went to the box score and there it was 1 hit =(

    I think I did pitch a no hitter against my roomate in mvp 2005 or highheat 2004, i forget, but this was almost as sweet

        Re: My First

        First off congrats to you!

        The only game I was ever able to pitch a perfect game vs the AI was MVP05 on the xbox. Last year I pitched a perfect game in my 2k7 online league vs the Giants.

          I threw my first Perfect Game since playing with the sliders in my favor in MVP 05 (I was 11 at the time, now 15). With Philip Hughes.

              I've come close with 1 or 2 hitters but never a perfect game maybe this season w/ 2K7.
              Coming is my style, but I have to go.

                  Had a perfect game going into the ninth with Cole Hamels today against the Marlins. With one out, he takes a liner off the skull BUT it pops up into the air and Helms pulls it down for the out. Phew. Too bad Hamels then goes out for two weeks with a concussion... Lidge finished it off, but nobody really cared at that point. So close.

                    This is too funny...

                    I'm also 31 and been playing games almost that long and threw a perfect game for the first time with Sabathia against the hapless A's in my franchise last week.

                    Congrats!

                      Congrats ! I remember when I threw my first 3 no-hitters. I did them all in the same franchise with 4 different pitchers in MLB 2K7. I had Tom Gorzelanny throw a no no vs. the Rockies in Coors field, he went 8 1/3 innings before suffering a hamstring injury. So I brought in Damaso Marte to finish off that No no. Then I threw one with Ian Snell vs the Reds and struck out 17 batters and then I had Sean Burnett no hit the Angels in PNC Park which was awesome.

                        Congrats, youngster!

                        Threw a perfect game with Mike Pelfrey (yes, the same Mike Pelfrey who gave up 8 Runs in 3 innings in ST the other day), haven't done that one before on any platform.

                        Of course, back when I was 7, the 'big' baseball news was that the Intellivision actually featured NINE fielders!

                          I've only ever thrown 1 no-hitter in my video game history. In last year's game with Paul Maholm (yeah, I'm surprised too). I walked 1 batter in the ninth to lose the perfect game on a really close full count ball call.
