Careful. You do it too hard, you might strain your arm and then you'll have to go on the DL because you can't use a controller.

So that's 15 days without The Show.

Careful.

Premature fist pumping faux pas. Hit what I thought was a no-doubt homer to tie the game in the 9th, with 2 out, only to see the ball slice foul for strike 2. Then promptly strike out on the next pitch to end the game,
Sorry to Debby Down what should be a fun thread.
Too much Show boating

My last game was a huge fist pump. Red Sox (me) vs Blue Jays (AI.) I have a 2-1 lead going into the 7th and I bring in Tazawa, who promptly walks a batter, strikes out a batter, and then gives up a single. So there's runners on first and third, 1-out, and something happens which I've never seen in a game of MLB before: a double-steal! I saw it happening but I was so shocked I just threw it to second on instinct. So game is tied.

Bottom of 9th, game still tied, 2-outs and no one on. Blake Swihart comes up but he's 0-3 at that point. So I pinch-hit Brock Holt, who singles. Next up is Pablo Sandoval who blasts one to left center - right in the area where I knew Bautista would field it. As soon as I hit the ball I held L1 because I was sending Holt on home no matter what. As he hits third base I can see Bautista winding up to gun the throw home. Holt's sailing towards home, the ball's flying towards the catcher. Holt beats the throw by about a hair, Sox win, I'm jumping up and down celebrating, my wife thinks I'm nuts! Hell of a great game!

Had a couple of great games so far with this year's game...and can honestly say IMO it's the best Show game I've played.

Playing as the Dodgers against the Rockies in Colorado Kershaw gave up 2 runs and I was trailing 0-2 in the 9th.

Puig steps up and blasts a 2 run Homerun to tie they game up. In extra innings, top of the 11th inning Seager hits a HR to go ahead 3-2. Closer gets the save and I won the game. Was lots of fun filled with drama and fist pump moments.

Another game was Giants vs Blue Jays. Tied 5 all top of the 9th, Crawford hits a liner to score a run in to win the game.

I'm not saying past versions had comeback code but I've had quite a lot of occasions where the AI would rally late in the game to win it, or a sudden burst of errors late in the game forced me to lose.

With Show 16 I haven't experienced any of this and have seen a good amount of close games going both ways, easy wins for me and the AI etc.

REALLY enjoying 16. Just wish they would work on presentation again, it's been going backwards for quite some time now.
