4 Outs in 9th Inning

1. What, specifically, were you doing when the problem occurred?
Include the specific screen you were on when the problem occurred.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

<o> </o>
I was managing a game and I made the last out in the top of the ninth to finish taking my beating from <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><st1:City><st1lace>Lexington</st1lace></st1:City> in Rookie Ball. After my batter made the last out I clicked the enter key and for some reason it started running through another at bat. Initially I thought it was just replying the text but when I looked at the box score I noticed my hitter did receive an additional at bat. He was the ninth hitter in my lineup and he had a total of 5 at bats versus everyone else having 4 at bats.<o></o>

2. What happened? Was there an error message? If so, what was the specific message?<o></o>

<o> </o>
There was no error message and unfortunately my guy made an out so then the game ended. (he could have at least took advantage of the fourth out and staged a comeback…lol)<o></o>

3. Were you able to repeat the error with this same game? With another game? If so, what steps did you take?<o></o>

<o> </o>
Obv. I cannot repeat the error in the same game but what I did notice was that in the 9 previous games I had used the mouse and in this game I was using the enter key on my number pad to simulate at bats. I will try this in the future to see if I can duplicate the bug.<o></o>

4. If relevant, what do you think the program should have done?<o></o>

<o> </o>
Obv. The game should have ended when I made the third out in the ninth.<o></o>

5. What is your league configuration (fictional/historical, etc.)<o></o>

<o> </o>
The league I am running is a fictional league pretty much standard for when you start a new game with the exception I renamed my team and reworked the names of teams and awards to match real life MLB.<o></o>

Lastly, awesome game. I probably don’t get into the nitty gritty the way some other guys do but this is my favorite of the series already. I lived in the <st1:country-region><st1lace>UK</st1lace></st1:country-region> for 3 years and started playing championship manager and even though I wasn’t a huge football fan I loved the game. Searching for a baseball equivelant is actually what led me to OOTP 4 I think. So the fact you guys hooked up with SI is great and I love this interface. I know people don’t always like change but I think the majority of folks will grow to love this interface.<o></o>

Thanks for a great game!<o></o>
