    For now on; I'm trying each Moment ONCE and each Play vs CPU game, if needed, ONCE.

    If I don't complete the mission, I don't get those points towards the final reward.

    If I don't get the final reward; I don't get the Program Star progeess towards that Inning's Bosses.

    If I don't get to 300 that Inning; that WILL be the FINAL inning I play this year.

    I'm beyond tired of the game deciding if I complete something instead of actual player input.

    You want to program a baserunner to be aggressive and try to attempt a stolen base, with 2 outs in the bottom of the 8th, only to be picked off to end my AB WITHOUT throwing on [censored] pitch; when that same baserunner refused to run past second, when I hit a gapper; denying my the LAST XBH I needed to complete the mission.

    You want to program the cpu to throw 16 straight pitches out if the zone, forcing me to swing at [censored], juat so I don't waste an AB getting a walk in total a mission where I need base hits.

    You want to program the cpu to miraculously start making diving catches, fouling off 15 straight pitches (only to hut a low and away sinker), all the while my outfield (who has held a 2-0 lead all the way into the 9th) starts dropping fly balls; thus allowing 3 runs to score and wasting the last 45 mins if my day.

    Do you get paid per post? From what I can tell you are new/late to the scene, yet I have seen more posts from you in the last few weeks than I have seen from any other single person from all years of the show combined.

    I still haven’t had an OF drop a fly all. Lightning Correa dropped a line drive but those are the breaks. Man up and beat the CPU for Christ’s sake.

    Sounds like you are not okay with failing and even the best players in this game fail 70% of the time.

    Baseball may just not be for you.

    I have no trouble failing; as long as I fail because of my skill.

    Not when I need ONE XBH to finish the mission, with Trea Turner on 1B, and I hit a gapper to the wall; yet instead of rounding second and heading to third, he stops at second and I get tagged out.

    Yet the VERY NEXT AB, which I wouldn't have needed if he rounded second; he decides to try and steal second, with two outs, and gets picked off thus ending the mission and instead of ME failing, it's because the cpu was stupid.

    How is it user error in a moment when you only control the player who is hitting and not the baserunners? Why does everyone always have to try and flame someone? If you don't have anything to add then scroll right on by. You can't control the runner so it's not user error unless there is some way that you can actually control the runners in moments when you are player locked?

    Please enlighten me on how a COMPUTER CONTROLLED PLAYER, in a Player Lock Moment, messing up is user error?

    these moments are not that bad. everyone fails at them but eventually finishes them off. when you fail a couple times just play another moment or online. then come back to it .

    I apologize, I didn't see that it was a COMPUTER CONTROLLED PLAYER. Wasn't trying to "flame" you? (serious question, where are you from that you use "flame"?)

    They moments are broken. What I find fascinating when I have a lead off hitter how the pitcher is always on base. One game my pitcher when 4/4 and I was supposed to get 3 xbh but he always would stop at second. stuff like that you cant even make up.

    Or when the pitcher will check on the runner multiple times when we have no control of the runner.

    Or every time when I have a lefty batter you face a right hand pitcher with an amazing slider. And they walk you if you dont swing

    Sir this is a video game...its not baseball.

    If the doctor calls and says did you get any exercise today would you say.... yes....I spent an hr playing baseball?

    No you wouldn't. You would say no i didnt the only exercise i got was playing a video game pacing back and forth wondering why my pitches are going down the middle =c)

    Touche!

    However, the fundamental probability of possible outcomes in a simulation should emulate the real thing.

    Also, there is a saying in baseball: hitters hit mistakes. If pitcher's never missed their spots, no one would ever get hits. Therefore, let's just assume that pitchers "miss" 20-30% of the time which would correlate with batting averages.
