Showdown glitch - missing runner?
-
I post out here regularly, and I always try to be level-headed... but I think I just lost my mind.
Inning 1 Showdown. I'm in the final, tied 15-15 with 3 outs remaining. I get a double with David Ortiz. I pinch run for him with 88 speed (I forget who it was). Yermin hits a groundball to 2nd, pinch runner advances to 3rd. I then hit a deep fly ball to RF, I go to tag... and there ISN'T a runner on 3rd. I look at the game log and there is no mention of the pinch runner being out.
I end up loading the bases with one out left, then fly out to CF.
Maybe I imagined this. But I don't think I did, and I don't have the game log to prove any of this. Ugh.

Same thing just happened to me. I got a screenshot.
Essentially, bases loaded, Piazza on third. I hit a double and score one run, and Piazza isn't mentioned as scoring.

Yep, same here. Runner disappeared from third. I have a video of it. It happened yesterday too and I thought I was going crazy. Fortunately since it happened again today I know I’m not nuts...

I feel bad for you, but I'm glad you've seen it, too. Now I don't feel... insane.

Yes happened to me this morning. Not sure if it’s the same case for you guys, but for me it was when my runner on base was coming up to the plate again. I had Ramos on base and I was holding off on letting him score cause I had a perk with a RISP. Then when it was Ramos’ turn to come up to bat, he disappeared off third base. In 20, they would replace the runner with the last out. But this time, no replacement

Happened to me as well. Another bhug they need to fix.

I’ve done showdown 8 times now and haven’t seen this happen. It probably did and I just didn’t notice

Yup, I had this happen to me last night in showdown, I had a runner on third and then all of a sudden he wasn't there anymore. I thought maybe I was just wrong and didn't have a guy on third or I was going crazy so in some ways it's good to know this has happened to others.

If you can remember (or anyone else who has had this issue), by any chance, whichever runner you had on third, did they disappear when they also would've been coming on deck? (i.e. you've almost batted around the order).
In my earlier post I said I was in a mini-boss game and Ramos disappeared off third when he came up to bat gain, but after looking at the replays I realized it was actually when Ramos came back on deck. Seems everyone has lost their runner when they've been on third, but I'm curious if it's also when the game tries to bring the same player into 2 places (on base and on deck).
Either way I submitted a ticket and included video, so hopefully they can resolve the issue, but I figure if we can pinpoint what triggers the issue, we can at least try to avoid it and avoid the frustration while we're waiting for a fix.

This is a good point that you bring up as to a possible reason why it would happen. I hadn't thought about that. I wish I was paying enough attention to remember if that was the scenario for me but I can't remember.

Earlier today, I had the bases loaded and proceeded to strike out three straight times. Every time I struck out a runner disappeared going clockwise around the diamond. Fun times.

That's little-known rule 5.09 (b) subsection 97. Know the game!

This just happened to me. 15-15 with 7 outs left, runner on 2nd and ground out runner advances to 3rd. Next batter comes up and I notice he's gone and I just laugh and go oh no it happened to me
