Rays slaughter O's on opening night behind Upton's 6 RBI outing!!!!!

Baltimore, MD - B.J. Upton was in the spotlight tonight as he went deep twice and drove in 6 RBI's as the Rays open the season on a high note with a 9-5 victory over the O's at Camden Yards tonight. The Rays once led 5-0 after Upton sent a 3 run homer into the right center field seats before the "Birds" came all the way back to tie it at 5-5 in the bottom half of the 6th, but then the Orioles ran out of steam. Jason Bartlett scored off a suicide squeeze by Carlos Pena with the bases loaded in the 7th and then Upton completed his 6 RBI night as he added a two run shot in the 9th to secure the victory. Scott Kazmir went 6.0 innings and had enough offensive support to land him the victory. Jamie Walker took the loss for the O's who will look to respond after an off day tomorrow.

LOL!!! Yeah, I'm ready to move on. That game was the best one yet though. The CPU can score and I can score. The CPU and I were both hitting the ball into the gap, down the lines, occasionally struggled at the plate, it was great. It felt like the way it should be. I can't wait to get deep into this now. All the hard work and exploring around has payed off. Just want to thank you all for your support and patience with me.

Did you make any tweaks on it? I've been using the default set and in 5 games still didn't have any more than 2 homeruns.

Nope, using the ones mlblover sent me. I'm using classic pitching and using all of my house rules. I'll send you a PM with them.

Thanks.

EDIT. Oh these are the exact same ones from the thread. I need to do some tweaks and I should be good. I think I need a cpu and user hr and double boost and then that's it.

Yeah, I was down 6-5 and they had a runner on 3rd with one out, I was going to walk him and hope Pena would ground into a double play, but decided not to. First pitch, boom!!!!! Over the wall in right center. To top it off, what does Pena do the next at-bat, ground out to 2nd.

HH, good luck this time around and maybe a little slider help from an "oldman" will help.
