I don't like Polo Grounds

Just had a ball hit to deep right center, ball bounced, landed on the bullpen roof, and roll around until Kelbert Ruiz was rounding 3rd base for an in the park HR. Gotta love the fact it wasn't the typical ground rule double, but was absolutely unplayable for 3+ seconds
I've seen that happen in prior years. Not fun to have happen to you but that feels so rare its entertaining to see imo.
I had a ball that I shot into the gap that hit the bullpen mound weird and died. Turned what was probably an inside the parker to I think a double.

Yeah had one that died on the wall back there myself. Just took a day for Ruiz to run home, was funny. I've had some strange goings lately, like a ball bounce off my left fielder's glove for a HR, bounced a good 6 feet off the glove.

Think my current favorite fake out is the HRs that hit off the facing of the upper deck will show where the ball will land on a ricochet so its like "hey you got a chance!....for a souvenir"

You know what really shows off how unnatural this game is? Hitting a ground rule double to RCF at Polo Grounds
. I'm totally sure someone could hit a ball that far that would then be on a trajectory that could bounce over the wall. Ball physics bro! -

I had that happen to me, threw it in and it bounced off the cut off guy. Sadly it was in inside the parker to make me lose the game

Had a dude hit foul ball homerun. It was quite the sight. Then just figured RNG got me and moved on to the next loss. LOL
I saw a video of the Youtuber Shelfy which his opponent hit a Foul Ball which was called HR and then in the bottom said it was a inside the park one. And he lost the game since it happened in the 3rd inning

It’s a perfect way to give bad players a crutch. Can’t catch up to a fastball? Home run! Swing 5 minutes early on off speed? Home run! Meanwhile, I’m hitting 480’ outs on perfect/perfects.
-
Had Dibble in the game and my opponent was in swing mode, ended up bouncing a fastball that he hit out. Didn't know whether to be mad or impressed.
-
Has anyone hit it out of CF yet? I came close just now with Posada and came close a few times last year but never got it the 470+ so curious if anyone has.

Some alien took me deep to center with Giambi a few years ago, best hitter I ever faced, absolutely demolished anything and everything in the strike zone

That’s amazing. I don’t even care if it’s against me. Every time there is a lefty on the mound and Chipper or Mantle up (125 power each) I’m like maybe there’s a chance…..

Funny I actually hopped into his stream just after he uploaded that and he was talking about it. I haven't seen the video yet but I'm not surprised at this point.

I just Perfect Perfected a ground rule double to right center which was brutal. Bounced over the high wall by the bullpen
-
Welp at least you aren't 1 hour into a freeze off that was obviously caused by your opponent. Game would stutter every time I got a hit and finally when I was about to take the lead....here we sit. If you're on here my playstation will burn to the ground before you get a free win scrub.

I hit 2 perfect/perfect fly outs with Mantle to center yesterday vs LHP and Chipper hit a missile towards that bullpen just to the left of center and it bounced over for a Ground rule Double lol. Would have been inside the park. Stadium is ridiculous

That's happened to me before and I've done it before. Kinda sucks both sides.

Who came up with this stupid idea?
I like it, I've been clapping cheeks in this event. Gonna sell Jasson for Stubbies.

Ima use him.

Yeah - I’m at 14 wins and will be keeping Dominguez as well. Best Event card yet so hopefully we’ll start to see more viable options in future events.
