3 glitches to report

rewc27 · 06-01-2006, 11:17 PM

1) my batter had a 2-2 count, fouled a ball off and it came and said strike 3 on the pbp. He still got to conitune his at bat but according to the pbp he was out.

2) I pinch hit for my pitcher. This happened to me twice in the same game. It would have let me let my pinch hitters pitch if I wouldn't have been paying attention. It didn't notify me that I needed a pitcher.

3) I'm winning in the bottom of the 10th inning 3-2 runner on first and one out. The AI let the pitcher bat instead of bringing in a pinch hitter.

On a cosmetic note, I would like to know when the AI substitutes a player. I don't see any notification when a new pitcher, pinch hitter, etc, come into the game. I look at the screen and say oh when did he come into the game.

#2 isn't necessarily a big deal - position players can pitch in real life, after all.

Although I would suggest that the game probably ought to be limiting that capability to extreme mop-up roles or instances where there are no pitchers left.

Or at least letting you know that you currently have a position player assigned to pitch.

I think #2 is a big issue, I could have a non pitcher pitching with the game on the line.

just my 2 cents.

also, if you didnt notice, after the game, that pinch hitter will have a 1 rating for pitcher fielding.

It seems to me that whenever I pinch hit for ANYONE, at the end of the half-inning, it takes me back to the lineup page, and the pinch hitter's position reads "-".

What you have to be careful of is when you replace a FIELDER. The new position player automatically assume the position he is replacing, unless you change the first player's position to "-" before making the defensive change. Otherwise, the box score will include the replacement player at both positions.
