Your worst loss?

I was playing a game against the Braves in my San Diego Padres franchise last night and was up 4-2 in the 9th inning. They hit a lead off double followed by a walk. Two on with no out. Now things get weird...Freddie Freeman sacrifice bunts the runners over, so I intentionally walk Kemp to set up the double play. Bases loaded and one out. Believe it or not but the next 3 hitters, Garcia, Flowers and Jace Peterson I believe ALL SUICIDE SQUEEZE!!!!

The Braves walk it off 5-4.

This is an offline franchise vs the CPU and on each bunt my 1st baseman (Will Myers) wouldn't move. (a bug maybe?)

Needless to say I was pissed.

Anyone else have a bizarre loss to share?

Re: Your worst loss?

Other night I (Atlanta) was up 6-1 on the Mets going in the bottom of the 8th inning. Two outs, runners on first and third, a called third-strike to the batter which drops in front of the catcher. No big deal, I pick it up and casually throw the ball to SECOND BASE by mistake so all runners safe. Next batter up hits what looks like a routine fly ball to Matt Kemp, who misses the ball, which rolls to the fence. Two runs score, so now it's 6-3. Next guy up hits a shot to SS, which I thought he should have had; the ball rolls into the outfield, where the RF mis-plays the ball. Another run scores, 6-4. By now my reliever is tired so I change pitchers. First pitch he makes, which is nowhere near where I wanted it, gets sent into the LF seats. Now I'm down 7-6 and they go on to score two more to make it 9-6. Just an awful turn of events.

down 3-2 white sox@twins, top of the 8th. I get the bags loaded and no outs.
then I strike out with jose abreu. 1 out. then melky cabrera gidp's. great just great.
I go into the bottom of the 8th knowing in the back of my mind I squandered the perfect opportunity.
but hey, I still got 3 outs to do something.
nope. my pitching is rattled because of my woes at the plate. twinkies bat around and score 8 runs in the bottom of the 8th.
top of the 9th down 11-2 , I K 3 times, twice caught looking on the 3rd strike. embarrassing to say the least.
esp. since it was Minne-freaking-sota.
just a bad look and a bad loss. it was such a bad loss it that lingered for 3 more games, enabling the yankees to sweep me in my next series. disappoint.

Not really bizarre, but I lost a 13 inning game against the Astros in large part due to the 3 times I was thrown out at home after the 9th inning, and on the run they scored to tie it in the 9th I had Altuve out by a mile at home but McCann couldn't field it cleanly

Re: Your worst loss?

Unexpectedly, my worst loss was in Retro Mode.

I lost 31-5...and four of my runs somehow came in the ninth inning.

It was an absolute embarrassment to play through, but I soldiered on, because I needed to complete that mission...

Re: Your worst loss?

I have had numerous hall of fame blown wins trying to close out cpu. The worst though was a missed fly ball for the last out. I ran down and thought the catch animation would kick in only for my player to stand still and let the ball drop beside him.

Re: Your worst loss?

Was playing DD to finish a mission and I was tied 1-1 and all i had to do was field the ball for an out, but no my outfielder dropped the ball and things went down hill after that and the other team just kept getting hits and so after holding that tie for 15 innings I lost 3-1
