    Man did I just have a fun game...

    I started a franchise with my Mets. (I'm playing on Pro with the default slider setting sso I can get used to the game, I am new to the WSB series. I plan to change the sliders once I am accustomed to the game though.)

    Anyway I made some trades at first, and I admit that I made some pretty lopsided deals. I ended up getting Wade Miller, Adam Dunn and Furcal. Gave up guys like Burnitz, Larkin(who i got with Dunn), Cerda who I later got back, and some others.

    So my first game is agains the Cubs. Leiter vs. Wood. In the 3rd I get one run. In the top of the 6th, Karros Sosa and Alou one after the other get hits, Leiter gets out of the inning giving up 3 runs. He leaves the game pitching 6 innings, giving up 3 runs, 9 hits, but getting 11 strikeouts. Roberto Hernandez, who I also traded for comes in and pitches well in the 7th, but in the 8th, gives up 2 more runs.

    Bottom of the 8th, 5-1 Cubs. Dave Veres comes in for them. Furcal gets a hit. Weathers came in for Hernandez is out and Timo pinch hits, but gets nothing. Cedeno gets a hit Alomar gets a hit. Bases loaded. Piazza singles and gets an RBI. Floyd pops out with the bases loaded. Mo Vaughn singles, another one in. bases still loaded. 5-3, 2 outs, bottom of the 8th.

    Adam Dunn comes up, gets walked, out comes Veres as he walks in a run, 5-4. Bases loaded.

    Up comes Ty Wigginton, 2-4 on the day. Remlinger comes in for the Cubbies. Grand Slam for Wigginton. 8-5. Benitez comes in the top of the 9th. 3 pitches, 3 outs. Mets win 8-5.

    So fun I can't even tell you. That game secured WSB2k3 for me.

    I hope everyone else has such fun and exciting games as I did.

        That is the great thing about this game is the variety of differnet games. I played one against the dodgers, I was the Padres where I lost 12-2. Next game agains Kevin Brown 1-1 all the way to the bottom of the ninth. THe Dogders get a leadoff double and I bring in Hoffman. He sets three down in a row. Botttom of 10th, I lose on a sac fly to left, a great game indeed.

            One thing I really love about this game (and maybe it's the atmosphere)is that when you're in a tight game, it really feels like it. I was up 3-0 last night against Florida and they chipped at the lead and tied it up in the 8th. I went 1,2,3 in the ninth, and I was scared to death that Roberto Hernandez was going to give up the winning run, especially after the first batter singled. I got out of it and Sheffield drove in Chipper from 2nd in the 10th. Smoltz came on and got the save. Great game (and I've been a High Heat fan up until now). Right now, I'm 7-4 with the Braves, 1.5 games behind the Phillies and Mets. I traded for Contreras, Lightenberg, Witasick, Sean Burroughs, Odalis Perez, and picked up Darren Fletcher via free agency. I got rid of the high price tags of Hampton, Castilla, and Lopez in the process, so I have a lot of budget points to use later. I know that I go a little trade crazy, but that's half the fun--doing what you think the team should do if you were in control.

                    Yeah the CPU robbed me of a HR in a game today. Went up over the wall to rob Piazza. Fortunately Piazza went and found the CF in the clubhouse later after the game. J/K
