Nothing I did to the lineup, strategy would stop the streak. Most games were close but always on the losing end.

While I have never had such a losing streak before I have had a lot of bad luck. I am routinely in the top 3 in both runs scored and fewest runs allowed but either can't make the playoffs or lose in the WC.
I wish they gave the in-game currency points for futility and bad luck. Shouldn't a 15 game lose streak be worth 800PP or something.

The amazing bad streaks and unfortunate circumstances that happen should be rewarded. For example a 15 game losing streak, variant 5 Joe Cronin committing 4 errors on opening day (yes, it happened), Chris Sale giving up 4 homeruns in an inning (yes again), etc...

I'm sure most of the community has even worse examples. Either way we'd all benefit. Yay
