Even elite closers give games away from time to time. And, while upsetting to the gamer, it is possible for a Punch and Judy hitter to get a hold of one when we think he shouldn't have. I'm not making light of peoples misfortunes late in games, but I personally love how hard it is to hold a lead. Watch Baseball Tonight or the MLB network highlights and you'll see virtually the exact same things happening every day in major league ballparks across America. I've played about 40 or 50 full games and I haven't seen 3 HR's on 3 straight pitches yet. Not that it didn't happen to the poster who described it, but I don't think it's the norm.

I understand that comebacks happen and "that's baseball" but not when it happens almost every other game.

I'm just going to stick to Rookie where these things don't happen.

Something hilarious just happened.

Playing vs the CPU in a fantasy drafted season mode game.

I'm up to bat. Buxton walks. Then Harrison walks. Next batter is Victor Martinez, he cranks a home run but mysteriously only gets 2 RBI on the play. Buxton and Martinez scored, but for some reason, Harrison remained standing at first base for the next better, who was Jose Bautista. Bautista proceeds to hit a home run and gets 2 RBI. I'm laughing out loud at what just happened here. Bautista steals an RBI from Martinez. I watched the replay of Victors HR and Harrison just stands between 1st and 2nd watching the ball soar over the wall instead of running home.

what the.....

Oh wow. I just hit a bottom of the 13th walk off grand slam in the 5th game of my Padres Franchise with Yonder Alonso to beat SF 7-3.

Been playing this game for forever and can't say I've ever done that before.

Um...okay?

It's the fifth-highest upvoted issue on the Bug report site and the devs posted a comment that they're working on the fix.

Rob they are switching vs me. Tex and McCann always have the shift on vs them... EDIT: Do want to add about 3B. Thought maybe my 3B just needed improved. Seeing Machado is the same then yeah a few get by that I thought should have been caught/fielded. Maybe a tweak is needed there by a patch ??

Yeah I don't see pounding the strike zone either this year. In the past big time but already just on rookie DD I am already seeing like as many walks and 1-0 and 2-0 counts as I did in the past with sliders down to make the CPU throw more balls and on all star. Being only on DD rookie to once I get it up to like all star it can only get better.

Oh, and this doesn't apply to RTTS. If my player is on base in RTTS I see pickoff attempts all the time when no runners are moving.

Im just saying I dont see it. Played two games this morning, stole 4 bases with no pick off attempts what so ever.

So now we have a reliever in the rotation because the AI is screwed up when it comes to trades. I don't get it...frustrating.

Yeah Im on RTTS and am a power 1B for the Mets, year 2 Im the starter, they sign Miguel Cabrera in free agency, and he's the MLB Backup 1B. He's rated 99, just sitting on the bench. It stinks because we now have horrible relief pitching so every game is seemingly lost in the late innings, I'm trying to have a winning record but the cpu is making stupid roster moves and trades.
