It has started to rain...

pallison14 · 07-21-2008, 06:23 PM

Played through another game, and this one was best by rain start / stops (maybe 5 or 6 of them?), but the game was never actually delayed by rain.

I understand the messages of rain (as annoying as they are, as they change the game and count situation every time the message is displayed), but one thing I noticed is that it still has a dramatic effect on pitchers.

Case in point, I had a SP on the hill cruising through the first 4 innings. In the 5th inning, it seemed like there were 3 "It has started to rain..." / "The rain has stopped..." messages. My pitcher, who had been grooving along, was suddenly "Exhausted" by the third message. This was despite working through a ~12 pitch inning (and sitting on about 65 pitches through 5 innings).

Bug? Glitch?

Are you sure that there weren't any delays? How long did the game last? It should be listed in your box score.

As there hasn't been any update from the OP in the last week, this thread will be closed. If you do manage to get the boxscore we will re-open the thread and investigate further.
