Thanks to SECA for listening to our needs in the QC pitching. I have to say it did improve. SP does last a little longer. Still after several sims the box scores show the Ave SP is getting about 5 and 2-3 innings. It still seems to be based on the situation especially in close games. SP aren't getting the ability to work out of jams in close games. At the first sign of trouble in the 5th or 6th in a close game, they are still pulling them

If the CPU is winning they will let their pitchers go 7 or 8 if they have high stamina and low pitch counts. But it is much better than it was . I feel it still needs a little improvement. I have found something that seems to help even a little more. When playing games depending on the pitcher I am facing, I edit them just before the game, if it is there #1 starter; I edit his stamina, durability, and clutch rating. For example all #1 starters get a stamina of 95 to 99, #2 90 to 94, #3 85 to 89 and so on. Durability I add up to 25 points depending on his rating. Many SP have a very low durability rating and then I add up to 15 points on their clutch rating. This seems to get me an extra inning or two but it still is determined by the situation and score when a SP is pulled. I don’t edit my own pitchers, then at the end of the game I return them to their actual ratings so as to not mess with sims when I am not playing them. This makes the game much more playable for me.

I have seen this twice now in 2 different games. One out I have a man on 1B, I hit grounder to 3b or SS, man on first starts towards 2b, stops and tries to go back to 1B. Force out at second then throw to 1b where there are now two men standing on the bag. Here's the thing, It happened with the same base runner Perez was filling in the catching spot for my Tribe. I can live with it; I just assumed he is a stupid base runner. In reality, being a Tribe fan, I have seen worse.. LOL

I feel bad for those that play online, I guess they are still having several issues. Hopefully there will be at least one more patch later down the road fixing some of the other issues that still remain like stat issues, dirt balls, base running ,substitutions, and just some clean up. But for now the game is playable for us QC guys. So once again. Thanks to the dev’s.
