Triple Plays
-
Has anyone here ever hit into a triple play. I just did. Talk about demoralizing.
(Edit: I should also add that the play was unassisted.) -
No way, that sucks. I'm the king of rally killing double plays and I think I ran myself into a triple play once but that was my inability to control multiple players on the bases (my least favorite thing about this game). You should have saved that hahaha.

Been there. Couple of times. Pretty sure one was online and one in showdown. Not fun.
Turned one once online tho, that was fun.

Yeah, I have to admit I was sort of shocked. I was just sitting there thinking, Why is the inning over. Wait! What just happened? Ugh!

I'm sure if I turned one myself it would make ALL the pain go away.

This can be a very humbling game and when I start pressing, I really screw [censored] up, but I'm guessing you must have smoked it to give them a chance to turn 3 which is mega deflating. Just play a game against CPU rookie 5th pitcher and blast off hahaha.

Hell yeah it would. I gotta give you props for rocking the Orioles icon. Rough season this year but really good things are on the horizon. I bet Cedric Mullins wins an MVP in a few years as they start winning 90+ a year. My gramps was an O's fan so I always liked them.

I love them. I became a fan when they lost to the Pirates in the Series. I can still list off the starting line ups from that series. The way they lost was brutal though. The future is always bright in baseball I think. (Edit: 1979)

Well said. I'm a Cards fan so I have no right to complain but their loss in 1985 was brutal and then getting swept by the Bosox in 2004 was also tough. But then they have a miracle David Freese in 2011 or David Eckstein in 2006 and it's all worth it. I would love to see an Orioles v. Cardinals WS one day.

That would be a great series but I really liked that one between the Cards and Tigers, Cards and Bosox. Just classic teams representing their league. Especially the Cards. St. Louis is baseball town America.

I miss Triple Play Baseball. That intro to '97....
Although '99 was the best.

I believe I have. I also turned one yesterday: it was a 3-6-3 DP but the lead runner turned from 3rd base to home. Despite the game's laggy best effort to try not to register my throw command to home, the ball eventually left the 1B's hand and went to the catcher for the tag. Close play but the animation went my way.

Hit into one that could legitimately happen in a real game, or hit into a really silly one cause I'm an idiot and went totally brain dead on the bases after a fly ball?
The first one, never. The second one, probably. lol
-
I run myself into them all the time
-
When im playing conquest on rookie (yes yes) sometimes if im 5-0 up i put the controller down and let them pitch, if by any chance by the time i come back with drink in hand or whatever and they've walked the first two. i hit the ball and just keep on running. triple play me up baby.
-
I hit into one last night. I thought I had both players back on the bag to tag but I guess I didn't return all the way. So when I tagged up he was able to get both my runners out. Deep pop fly and thrown out at 2nd and 1st. Triple play.
