Re: so I played my first game with CPU comeback set to ON

I had the mother of all meltdowns tonight.

Up 9-2 in the top of the 7th. I'm Texas vs Kansas City.

McCarthy is CRUISING. This game's in the bag.
WRONG!

7 STRAIGHT cpu hits to lead off the 7th inning. Two homers and two BS plays in the field later... It's 9-9 before I even register an OUT!

I regrab the lead 11-9 in the 8th inning.

Flash forward...top 9, Frank Fransuckso is in...two quick outs...followed by two SCREAMERS puts men on 2nd and 3rd.

Mound visit.

i walk Miguel freaking Olivo. Callaspo ropes a double into the corner on a full count. Tied 11-11. Dejesus is next, base hit, his SIXTH of the game. Down 12-11.

I score one to tie it in the bottom of the 9th, and then I finally won it in the 12th with a Salty base hit.

But come on. Texas is bad, but I was so beyond mad I didn't even enjoy this win. It's so obvious at times what is going to happen. This was with CPU Comeback ON, so I honestly have no idea if it makes a difference anymore.

Just once I'd like to win 9-2. Just once. I don't even mind that they come back, but it was relentless. It happens way too often.

That said...I still love this game!
