Re: What bone headed mistakes have you made?

Tried sending Yadier from first to second on a ball it the dirt. I think Yadier was half way between first and second when the SS had the ball.

Dropping fly balls in the outfield... Way more than I should.

Re: What bone headed mistakes have you made?

I had a 420 moment last night in an important game. I forgot to warm up my closer in a 3-2 game. Had to use my tired pitcher for ONE MORE BATTER - he gave up an HR. I lost the game in the 12th.

The 2nd game of a 14 game in a row streak so I really need my pen.

Hard to explain to the press it was a Blue Dream mistake.

Re: What bone headed mistakes have you made?

Two outs, bases loaded in the 9th, leading by one. Get a routine ground ball to my second baseman and I tell him to throw to first, then put down my controller to have a celebratory sip of my beer after getting out of a jam. Only to see my second baseman bobble the ball and have it fall in front of him, still with plenty of time to pick it up and throw him out at first, except the command gets canceled by the error and I've put the controller down like an idiot. I drop my drink in a panic and try and pick up the controller in time to make the out, I obviously don't do it in time so the tying run comes in. The next man up predictable gets the walk off hit, meanwhile my carpet is covered in broken glass and beer.

It's a new personal best for MLB the Show stupidity for me

Minus 1 Man Points for the loss.
Minus 50 Man Points for the spilled beer.

Re: What bone headed mistakes have you made?

I've had the occasional wrong base throw due to RTTS, but the biggest mistake ive made would be tossing Big Papi a changeup that stayed over the plate for too long on an 0-2 count. That home run cost me the game
