    guys like this who bunt constantly will lose in RS if you just be patient - throw them absolute junk high and in or high and away - i don't even need to move my infield for this - they get annoying bunts sure but just focus on getting them out as fast as possible and they rarely will score more than 1 or 2 runs tops in a game - all you need to do is replay each HR you do so you can make them eat it during your eventual W

    I played a guy last night in BR. He literally bunted his first 7-8 batters. Even Reggie Jackson. He got a run out of it. I just don’t get it. Is that really fun?

    Depends. He could've been playing only to parallel his pitcher and just hunted to get the inning over faster.

    I did that twice last night, in an Events game, when I was trying to get the 12 Ks with Milestone Hernandez so I could finish the FOD Program; before I realized that I could get them offline.

    And this is why online play is horrible. Toxic vs Toxic.

    It's posts like this (not the OP but the player the OP is referring to) is why I don't like playing online. At my advanced age, I don't have patience for this kind of garbage anymore.

    Yeah I just don’t get it. I’m not against bunting or trying to bunt for a hit. But this sort of thing makes no sense in the real world and is just used to exploit weaknesses in the game. They weren’t even particularly great bunts but geez if they weren’t all in just the right spot.

    you've gotta be kidding me - i like to watch my homers - if you can't stomach that you are weak af - most of you guys just quit once you're down a run anyways

    I was keen to get Cal in the event. Played the first game and the guy played me straight up. Second game, the guy bunted with every batter, hit R2 and was generally an [censored]. Needless to say, I didn't bother with Cal after that. I won both games, btw, so I'm not bitching because of that, there are simply too many asshats that play this game online to be bothered anymore.

    You would only be able to watch one; because you wouldn't get another AB. There's no reason for showboating. Just like how there shouldn't be Sounds of the Game if you're the away team.

    Some people can’t hit so it’s what they do unfortunately. Good thing is bunting isn’t very effective in MLB 16 it was a nightmare where you were pressured to play bunt defense with any fast batter.

    for many of the 10 year olds in the community who think yourfriendkaren is cute, this is the norm. They know no better

    you mean there is no reason to take an extra 10 seconds to watch a replay of your own home run? when you re-say it out loud - how ridiculous does it sound to you ?

    That's the thing. I can't hit for [censored] online so he probably would have beaten me anyway. I don't even pull the bunt stuff. Occasionally I'll try to lay one down for a hit if I haven't gotten a hit yet, just to get a baserunner.

    Depends on the HR. Do you really need to watch a 350 ft HR that barely clears the wall? I'm on the "act like you've hit a HR before side". A 450'+ HR? Yea, I like to watch those whether I hit them or give them up.
