HBP Warnings

[BleacherCreature]

So in my game earlier there were several batters hit with pitches (a few intentional on my part) and both dugouts were warned. However, after the warning there were 4 more hit batters with zero repercussions. Found that odd.

IRL, pitchers get tossed after the 2nd hit batter if I remember right. I played a game where 3 batters out of 5 got HBP and nothing happened.

From what I've seen, the game treats this right.

If I plunk a guy deliberately, I get warned.

I've had numerous plunks with Randy Johnson on running sliders that got away in which I wasn't warned or tossed.

To clarify, there were 6 total batters hit in the game. 4 were by me and they were all intentional, even after the warnings.

This game is horrible whwn it comes to ejections and warnings. I've hit players 3x in a row (throwing sliders in) not so called intentional and nothing, no warning, no ejection.

It makes no sense to even have ejections as an option when nothing happens, I believe in MLB 18 they had it where if you plunked like 3 guys they would show you your bullpen bc you have to replace the P (aka ejection)

IRL it doesn't matter if it was intentional or not. There is really no way for an umpire to determine that. But I've never seen a warning either.

I will mention this is in MoM, but that still doesn't explain how it never warned that pitcher who hit the 3 out of 5 batters.

Unless you directly place the pitching cursor on the batter, the game will not issue warnings or eject pitchers for hitting a batter. Its user based only, meaning only the user, at least in all my experience, can have pitchers ejected for purposely hitting batters.
