You had 8 AB's to get him home, and you didn't. When it was his turn to hit again, he came up to bat. There aren't ghost runners in MLB the show....
his defense there was repeat runners last year, but yet again yeah shoudlve scored him by then.
Maybe? I never had that happen last year. Showdown is on ROOKIE and VETERAN. If people can't get their PCI squared up to hit a sac fly, maybe they don't deserve the 42 cards? There are 50 posts here of people crying about this. If you can't hit the ball, you honestly don't deserve free diamond cards. Practice and get better at the game. Like, ya'll 15 or something? You have to earn stuff in life my friends. Reminds me of the college student emails I get.
"Dear Professor, I know I haven't been in class for the past 15 1/2 weeks, what extra credit can I do to pass the class".
Nada dudes, try again next year.
Are you really 19-23 with a .253 BA?
If that’s the case you shouldn’t be telling him to practice, get better and stop complaining about losing a base runner...
Is that really his record?
You can't advance a runner in 8 outs, I'd go ahead and leave this one alone boss. LOL

I'm pretty terrible at the game and I have never lost a runner in showdown because I couldn't do anything with him over 8 outs. There's a lot of stuff SDS needs to iron out for this game to hit its stride, but I think it's perfectly reasonable to get punished for not being able to to bring a runner in with 8+ swings of the bat on a low difficulty. IMO the worst offender in showdowns is the lights out CPU defense and absolutely mashing balls that end up caught. And that isn't even that bad it just seems like it's either really hard to get a hit no matter what I do with timing and PCI or I cruise right through.

Yep, Lucas8181 really is 19-23 with a .253 BA which is lower than mine, yet he is telling me to get good. Not only is he condescending, he is lying about how good he is at the game.

I believe I'm 11-3 or 11-4. Not sure what my BA is. Stats and records are a joke this year, nothing has been recorded correctly. I've spent most of my time grinding TA and offline stuff until servers are somewhat stable.
However, I am not good at this game, and that's kind of the point. While showdown was difficult last year, and I expect them to get more difficult as the year goes on, these two are on veteran and rookie difficulties. If I can advance a runner in 8 outs or less, everyone can
Lol, you’re 19-23...anyone on PSN can look it up. You’re lying, again.

It's been pretty clear to everyone that records are not currently accurate. Hopefully they sort that out at some point. If not, it's not a big deal to me.

So I no longer get to have the credit for having him on base? Whether or not I should’ve got him home doesn’t matter logically. The game shouldn’t be able to remove a player on base for no reason.
Who's going to hit for him? Bunt, steal, hit balls to the OF, hit a single. You have a minimum of 24 pitches to move him. It's on Rookie and Veteran. Like...what do you want, SDS to just give everything out for free? It doesn't get easier than this.....
I’m not saying give it for free. I’m saying don’t cheat but taking away a hit that I earned
-
Happened to me once, never did last year. It shouldn’t happen regardless if the dude didn’t bring him home “fast” enough. As for the clown talking about the professor, no. This is more like the professor knocked you down a grade point at the end of the year by giving you a zero in a test you got an 95 on earlier In the year , bc you “took to long to take the final exam”
-
The rules are the rules and I don't figure they'll change. If the professor says you get a zero if you don't finish on time, then you better finish on time. I'm not sure I love it but that's what it is.

Well there was no rule in this case, as last year they replaced the runner.
Isn’t one the things that everyone says for showdown is patience especially early which means you will take some outs working counts and not swinging till two strikes. Doesn’t this kind of negate the purpose of that?
-
I didn't play DD last season so I am new to Showdown, so point taken and yeah they probably should have notified the player base if this is in fact a rule change and not a bug.
As far as negating the purpose of being patient and working counts: I would still expect to be able to get a runner around in 8 ABs far more times than not.

Yeah, but I kind of suck and honestly when you think about it you could have a .333 average over 9 batters and possibly not get the guy in.

Fixed a bug that would cause a runner to disappear when they were also called to the on-deck circle in Showdown...
-
@foresticek_psn said in Showdown:
I would have no problem with disappearing runners if it would be official baseball rule.
Like if you are at third base and it's your turn to hit, you have to get off from scoring position, but I don't think there is any rule like that. It's just a glitch, so please stop defending that bsIt’s only possible within showdown that’s why it happens. It’s impossible to be on third and also be on deck in an actual game. No rule needed....
-
And now it will be fixed via patch notes, so you are defending a bug
