RTTS questions

[sandule_PSN]

Hi, I just started playing RTTS this year and had a few questions.

1. Why can't I get my player to wear Baggy Pants? No matter what I do, he has high socks!

2. I am a 2-way player SS/CP. Why can't my player play the field and close the game in the same game? Seems logical doesn't it? As a closer, I should be able to play the field!!!

3. How are attribute increases/decreases calculated? I get +1 for a tough play in the whole as SS but get -2 for a routine ground ball error I had no control over!!! Seems pretty stupid to me!

1. Unequip the socks!
2. Nothing!
3. Seems like you got it figured out!

Counterpoints:

1. Why am I giving up a point of CON and PWR "just because" I want the Autism Speaks bat over the 2023 Show "celebratory" bat? Who's supposed to have "final say" over my character's looks - me or the designers???
   Note: one point of stat isn't a ton in this game, but the "unequip socks", which if I took off the Jackie Robinson Day socks "costs" me 7 points of speed, that is a noticable difference with things like stolen bases, range in the field where one can reliably get an out, etc.

2. Same reason SP/XX (like my SP/1B) doesn't get to DH on the games he starts...

3. I've posted elsewhere that a catcher who misses on a throw to second loses something like a quarter of a stat bar. The logic seems designed to severely punish failure.

Your #1 question/point is my main beef with this game! It's not critical to the game play, but exactly what you said, why do I have to look at this awful equipment design just to get the point boosts.
