I lost count how many times the CPU let me back in a game that I was losing

Just like you see online. Even the same sequencing. Maybe the programming forces you to walk a guy with 2 outs. Maybe your SS boots a routine ball that would end an inning. Maybe your catcher won't pick up that dropped 3rd strike.....
Then you see a bloop over the 1st or 3rd baseman head on a 0-2 count. Now here comes the patented 3-run bomb.
If I'm losing then I should lose. It's how games have always been. I feel like I'm playing a soap opera with a controller.
Here is how I lost a game online yesterday.....I was pitching with 1 out in the bottom of the 3rd inning and my opponent had the tying run on 2nd. He attempted a hit and run and hit a line drive to 1st base that was caught by Prince Fielder. Since he took off he was at 3rd base when Price caught the ball. The game wouldn't let me throw the ball to 2nd to double him off and end the game. I had to have a foot race to the bag. Me running from 1st with Prince and him running back to 2nd.
I wasn't able to end the game and the very next pitch is an insta-homerun where you hear the honerun call before the swing of the bat. So scripted I wanted to puke.

My point is when you see something stupid in this game. Best believe something even more stupid is coming

It's amazing how much you "See", when you're looking for it.

You don't have to look for this stuff. Just play the game and it will hit you in the face. Nothing like a 20 foot diving catch or 13 foul balls after going down 0-2. Hum babe!
