June POTM Guidry Moment
-
I hate these strike out 5 in 3 innings moments.... 6th attempt and the most I've gotten is 4. Thanks SDS for making the A's the most plate disciplined team in baseball with perhaps the best contact I've seen so far in the game! Also love that I believe all the other moment goals, when they are no longer obtainable, fails the moment, but with strikeouts you better keep track of them yourself because even when there is no mathematical way of achieving the goal, the moment just keeps on rolling.

Fastball up and in, breaking stuff low and away (sometimes low and in may work better for lefty vs righty if they don't have a changeup like Guidry). Alternate every pitch. They occasionally punish near misses so pinpoint is best. Generally hitters won't chase out of the zone until 2 strikes although sometimes not even then. I agree that Guidry was not one of the easier ones to get Ks with due to his arsenal. And it's dumb that they don't fail it when you don't have enough outs remaining (I'm guessing this is due to the tiny possibility of dropped third strikes).

Well, apparently complaining about difficult moments and then tryin them again actually does work. Got 7 K's my next attempt. LOL. Should someone just start a "Moments Rant" thread where people can just complain into the ether about their tough moment? Everyone can just ignore the thread and just use it for what it is.... screaming into the wind for some luck.

This is the way

Looking through these other moments this could be a very very fun squad to grind some points. Im especially giddy o’er all of these fine, fine hurlers!
