I started a franchise yesterday with the Braves and was getting good results in game 1 (default All Star). I held a 2-1 lead thru the 5th inning when Lowe started to come apart a bit. His pitches are TOUGH to locate since he doesn't have a straight fastball and EVERY pitch of his has movement.

Philly took a 6-2 lead and I was able to cut it to 6-3 in the 7th. Well, I come up in the 8th inning with the bottom of my order and go down 1-2-3 and the game ENDS. Get the usual cut scenes and end game stuff, all the while i'm going WTF, did I just space out???

I go back to the box score, and sure enough Philly pitchers have 8 IP while my pitchers have logged 7. Loving the results of the patch, but to have this happen in game one of my franchise is mystifying. Out of the 25 or so exhibition games I've played with this game I'd never had this happen yet.
