Grand Slam with a "4"? Wow
No that was actually a perfect/perfect, no idea why it says 4 there. Missed pitch. But it should've been a solo shot at the worst, maybe not even because my pitcher confidence was so low after giving up all these hits which probably lead to leaving that in that location.

Do those numbers mean anything. Seems like it's always a 2 or a 4

4 runs scored. Or is it 4 bases? I can’t remember.

Ah yeah probably 4 bases then. Makes sense.

Ah yeah. Its on situation analysis not batter analysis. That's why I questioned the 4

Honestly, you got screwed by having at least 2 very low probability swings result in hits, but I'm guessing better defenders would have made the plays on the infield singles and it doesn't help that they had a bunch of speed. Also using a gold starter with low h/9 against solid hitters contributed to them putting the ball in play on pitches off the plate.
Having said all that, that's still brutal, but oh well. Baseball is the ultimate large sample size game. It evens out

@parradox-cam_psn said in I challenge anyone..:
They can’t justify it and they hide when visual evidence shows how shady this game is. Countless images/video clips over the years prove everything us “complainers” are talking about. Are they really going to deny visual evidence??
Interesting part is…I guarantee you those players experience everything we talk about for themselves but they’ll literally come on here and still defend this game like no other.
Or maybe our egos aren't so fragile that a loss in a video game doest derail our whole existence and we move on an enjoy life

My pitcher was diamond Logan Webb, I'm using pretty much diamond and gold defenders exclusively except for Josh Bell and Corey Seager who weren't the fielders where these balls were hit to. They all landed in the outfield, where I have FOTF Reynolds, Buxton and Tucker.

Thats weird unless I was looking at another game that went the same way for you. Said you pitched kazmir and two of the hits were infield singles, one to 3rd one to ss

Oh I could be wrong then because Kazmir is in my rotation. My bad. Still doesn't justify these hits imo.

Yesterday Nick Castellanos got a hit on a pitch that was 18 inches outside. It was a thing of beauty.

I saw that hit. But my opponent was not Nick Castellanos and had the pitch recognition of a blind person.

Well, logic dictates if hits outside the zone are possible, grouping 3 together in one inning would also be possible.

It IS possible, because I just provided the proof that it happened. The question is whether this is acceptable or not, especially in the context of the second screenshot I provided. To me it's not.

I'd be livid if it happened to me
But what is the solution?
The only way to make sure that is impossible is no hits out of the zone, otherwise it will happen at some point

I'm okay with giving up the occasional hit like that. Even if its followed up by a 2 run homer. But this was just ridiculous and cost me 5 runs against a player who couldn't recognize a pitch if his life depended on it.

I get it, you have every right to be ticked off, I just don't see any acceptable solution to prevent it.

A solution would be a band aid akin to what was implemented to combat bunt cheese, which ruined sac bunting, including in franchise mode. The game don’t need more band aids.
