Gotta love how some of these games play out. You're thread inspired me to tell about the game I just had.

I sim my franchise and play when I feel like it. Anyway I simmed my way through my current season with the Rockies (2022 or something like that) and made it to game 7 of the World Series, a home game against the Rangers.

Game started off as a pitchers duel with no hits till the 4th and continued till the 6th when the Rangers got a couple of hits and scored 1 run. Then the bottom of the 6th with 2 outs I got a single followed by a HR to right to go up 2-1. The Rangers followed with a solo HR in the top of the 7th.

We then kept dueling to extra innings. Top of the 10th 2 singles cause me to bring in a new reliever as mine was tired. Fly ball out to right but runner tagged and went to third. Scored on a single so runners on 1st and 2nd w/ 1 out. Then another fly out to right and runner tagged to 3rd. So now runners 1st and 3rd w/ 2 outs.... wild pitch off my catchers glove, run scored so I am now down 4-2 while facing Bryce Harper. Managed to strike him out to end the inning.

Bottom 10 a leadoff single for my #8 hitter, I bring a rookie pinch hitting for the pitcher and what happens? 2 run HR barely over the fence in center. Now it's all tied up at 4-4.... single to right by my leadoff guy. Next batter bloops one to right and I'm thinking ok cool 2 singles but THEN the RF misplays the ball allowing my runner to round the bases and beat the throw home to win the game and the world series.
