1st inning i jump out to a fast 2-0 lead with a BOMB from swisher his 8th of the month already. the red sox respond with 1 in the 1st,the 2nd & the 3rd. its 3-2 sox when i string together an old school yankees inning 2 walks a bunt an intentional walk and a bloop single by cano, its 3-3 going into the 8th. dustin pedroia (god i HATE him) hits a shot off edwar ramirez that still hasnt landed. its 4-3 going into the top of the 9th. they bring in papelbon. first pitch AROD sees goes deep over the monster and its 4-4..... then hmm lets see no scoring happens for the next 11 INNINGS! thats right im in the top of the 21st, when the red sox bring in javy lopez to pitch and tex takes a 3-1 slider to dead center. its 5-4 and after 3 singles its bases loaded 0 outs and i have no relievers left. i decide to bring in joba who doesnt pitch for 2 more games.... with youk, pedroia and drew coming up (papi is hurt for them) joba goes 3 for 3, strikeouts that is.. ALL LOOKING and the yanks salvage a 5-4 extra innings gem... god i love this game.

Re: Marathon Masterpiece
yea setting up pitches is a must in this game.... i dont go by what the catcher calls, i just go by whats got them out during the game. like with joba , i use my 4 seamer only to end the at bat. im showing them a whole lot of curveballs n sliders outside, so when i get the chance to show the 4 seamer, its usually tight inside and it freezes themTwitch Username: CEspo723Comment

Re: Marathon Masterpiece
Mix up your pitches and keep the hitters off balance. There's nothing like freezing batters on this game. I actually K'd 6 batters looking in the last game I pitched with Vasquez for the Braves.Comment

Re: Marathon Masterpiece
Yep, you have to think really deeply about how you pitch this year, its very much a game of bluff and counter bluff with the batter, you very rarely get cheap outs.Comment
