Ok I Just finished a game with the Phillies and Pirates.
Philles 3 10 0
Pirates 0 2 0
I didn't write down the specifics, but I had 3 K's and they had 4. There were about 2 BBs issued for each team as well. Tome had a Hr.
IMO, it appeared that the CPU was having trouble hitting off me, but I do know for a fact that they can really explode as they have done before. The reason for the 2 hit shutout was the fact that I actually was very careful with my pitches. I tried not to pitch to Giles, but threw mostly balls to him. Also, When Duckworth had half of his stamina I decided to pull him out after he allowed a double in the middle of the 5th when I had a 2-0 lead. Before I would keep him in there so that he can finish the inning only to realize that I should have pulled him out after they had scored 3 runs on him.
Therefore, they key to holding onto leads is to really, really be careful with your pitches, that is you have to know who your pitching to and how you're going to do it, and don't leave your pitcher in there when he's even half tired, unless you have a 10-0 lead.
Just my .02 I'll give more update later on, but I'm liking this right now. Although the score was low I know that I can explode with runs and so can they since it happened before.
Thanks
