It's time SDS penalize them more. I'm tired of getting a lead or shutting them out for a few innings and having them quit early. It's a 9 inning game. Finish it. Who knows, maybe you can come back in the ninth. Even if I lose I want to finish it. I need the innings.
I need a hug.
get those free W's no need to complain about it - it is what it is you know - sky is blue, grass is green, dandelions sting gotta wear gloves

Go have a beer and chill. People quit early in every mode. I've done it if I'm getting blown out but sometimes I'll stick with it if I just need some innings. Don't let what others do affect your day. You control that. Stay positive and just roll with it.
excellent advice and a lot of you guys lately on the forum are just a breath of fresh air compared to the last years here - lots of great advice and common sense - have a great weekend

True, but the free wins don't mean as much in the current iteration of RS. You don't get any points for a win. Yes, your rank goes up, but since I'll never make WS, I'd like one point please for a win. Or 10.

I hate posts like this. Take the wins & shut up. There will be plenty of losses where you can rack up the innings.

Like @arvcpa_PSN mentioned: if youre trying to get the pack from the Program path; wins don't do jack.
Also, if you're playing someone and they quit you just wasted that SP spot because now, no matter how long the game lasted, their stamina is depleted.
Wins matter if you're trying to get to WS. Not if you're just trying to grind the program.

i hear you completely too - totally mate - my 2 RS games today lasted until the 2nd and 4th innings before they quit out - it sucks

Wouldn’t be so bad if
A. They gave you the full 9 innings played for the game to help with the objectives
B. If lasting fewer than 3 innings. It doesn’t impact pitcher stamina
C. The other person needs to get a 3 strike rule within a week. 1 strike. Warning. I mean. Genuine DC can happen. Strike 2. 2 hour ban. Strike 3. 1 week ban. -

If you gave penalties like that in Ranked and a freeze-off occured; nobody would want to quit out.

I have gotten better at taking losses as a man. Last year I would get pissed and quit, this year I just play to play. I had to stop getting pissed at things I couldn’t control (constant line outs and floating pitches)
-
This is kinda dumb. If they quit, and you are concerned about just eating up innings, just hop into another game. No time wasted at all.

Strike 3. 1 week ban.OK, but twice in the last couple of weeks my opponent used the rain and intentional lag pause to force a disconnect, so despite being tied in one game and leading the other, they quit, and I got the loss both times.
The first time I sent a ticket in and they basically said "too bad, so sad".
I just played a game, and I am a weak hitter, where I take a 1-0 lead on a homer for a guy I needed for prestige program (2020) and got dashboarded.
Nothing I can do except move on to the next game.
