Re: Official "Bugs"/"Glitches" Thread

also in one of my games whenever i would see the man from first reach second in the baserunner window he wouldnt go to the bag, he would go to a spot right above the bag. i guess it just moved the bag over or something.

also how do you ram into the catcher, i press up but it never works.

I mentioned this one earlier in this thread... It appears to only happen in certain parks....

Re: Official "Bugs"/"Glitches" Thread

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but I didn't get credit for a save in a save situation. Hawkins came in with the score 3-0 and a runner on, and got the last out. I could be wrong though. Do you have to get more than one out to get credited for a save? If so, forget I said anything.

You should have been credited for the save. All that tying run stuff only matters if the lead is more than three runs. Hawkins should have gotten the save there even if he had only thrown one pitch to get the final out.

That's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure. Also a game later, I beat a team 10-2 and the reliever that worked the ninth inning got a save. That's not normal, is it?

He still needed to meet all 3 conditions regardless of score (which after reading over it again, Hawkins did):

Saves:
Rule 10.20 in the Official Rule Book states:
Credit a pitcher with a save when he meets all three of the following conditions:
(1) He is the finishing pitcher in a game won by his club; and
(2) He is not the winning pitcher; and
(3) He qualifies under one of the following conditions:
- (a) He enters the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches for at least one inning; or
- (b) He enters the game, regardless of the count, with the potential tying run either on base, or at bat, or on deck (that is, the potential tying run is either already on base or is one of the first two batsmen he faces; or
- (c) He pitches effectively for at least three innings. No more than one save may be credited in each game.

Hawkins met 1 and 2. He didn't meet 3a or 3c. After reading it again though he did meet 3b. The tying run was in the on-deck circle so Hawkins should've gotten the save. Actually a pitcher doesn't even have to throw a pitch to get a save. He could pickoff the runner and still get credited with the save.

No that shouldn't be a save. The most runs you can be up by and still get a save is 5. The bases would have to be loaded though.

Actually, if I recall it can be a save situation if:

A) If the reliever who worked the ninth came in the eigth inning and...
B) it was a closer score in the 8th inning (let's say, it was 4-2 for you, and you scored 6 runs in the top of the ninth).

I know, I'm reaching here

Re: Official "Bugs"/"Glitches" Thread

Yeah I've had that save thing come up as well. I lost 5-2, and the closer pitched 1/3 of inning and should have been credited the save, but wasn't. Other statistical bugs I've occurred is trying to take an extra base, say stretching a single into a double has been counted as an out, not a single. I've had earned runs (which should be unearned) but the batter didn't get the RBI's. Example, gave up error with guys on 2/3 both scored (two outs) it counted as 2 earned runs, but the batter didn't get credited w/ the RBI's. It should be unearned runs and no credit for the RBI's. So it's wrong in both departments. I've blown a save (up 2-1) gave up homerun and lost in extra innings, but wasn't counted as blown save. These are the glitches I've seen so far. No real gameplay bugs so far (played about 8 games) but I hope these stats errors can be fixed via patch (on xbox... a bit of a stretch, but they could make this game damn near perfect if they fixed these)

Re: Official "Bugs"/"Glitches" Thread

Last night I was playing (I was Seattle and I was playing Oakland) and Dotel came in for the save and they said now pitching was Hasagawa (SP?) not a big thing.....but still wrong.....

Also, I played a game last night that when Bill Mueller came up to bat it said that he didnt scare pitchers and he would never win a batting title........didnt he win a batting title? Or at least was close??
