I love the game but am thinking of sitting out '21 because of how little attention is being paid to new features or improving key parts of the game each season. PT is taking up all the time |
Re the bold it's hard to take any of this seriously when people don't know that when runners are thrown out the passed ball/wild pitch never happened. Passed balls are special errors for catchers, wild pitches special errors for pitchers because they handle the ball so much. The advancing baserunner must be accounted for in the score card.
