how to play 162 game season?

hey guys. i have never in my life played an entire 162 game season in a baseball game but i really want to. last year i got about halfway through when summer break came and i was on vacation and just stopped playing. is there a quicker way to get through the season? maybe only play 2 out of 3 games in a 3 game series? any tips?

I play 10 games per month. And make sure I use each pitcher in the rotation twice. That's 60 games, not including the 3 or so games you can play in October. If I'm in a playoff run by August/September I'll play more games, but if not then def stick to the 10 games per month.

Re: how to play 162 game season?

You only have to play about 14 games a month to play the entire 162 game season before the next version comes out, that's definitely do-able. I usually just mix in other sports games and just pick at my season here and there. I started a Pirates season last summer, and now I'm 93 games in.

Try hitting and not pitching or vice versa. Just fast forward through the half innings of the part of the game you don't want to play.

Other option: Fast forward to the 7th inning and play if your team is behind, sim to end if you're ahead. It's an edge of the seat way to play the season. And it's fast paced.

Re: how to play 162 game season?

when i play, i play as long as it takes to get the lead. Both batting and pitching, but once i get the lead (IF) i get the lead i stop batting and pitch only. Sometimes games take an hour, sometimes i only bat for 1 inning and they take 15-20 minutes.

Re: how to play 162 game season?

When I had a little more time (in high school/college) I would play the first game of every 3 game series, first and last game of every 4 game series, and both games of every 2 game series..

Now that I have less free time for this stuff, I just play the first game of every series. And if I see a pitching matchup I really want to play, I ad that game to the mix.
