    Drag bunt with Freddie Freeman to cause a freezeoff. Another scrub who has zero chance to win a game straight up. There is never a good time to drag bunt with Freddie so for someone to randomly do it knowing that it could trigger a good ole ground ball to the 2B freeze off is pathetic. Of course he won’t quit. It’s only an event game but it’s just so lame I don’t want to give him the satisfaction of stealing a win he would never otherwise get.

    Ok rant over. This guys punishment should be to get inside the mind of Dirty Shawnchez for a day.

    What’s a bracket?

    I can just tell by someone’s record, batting averages and how they’ve swung the bat the first few innings.

    Also, anyone who would bunt with Freddie Freeman is a dead giveaway for a scrub.

    Because since @Mike__Honcho_361 is so concerned with how he does in a video game he has digital hubris and forgets that some people just play to have fun.

    They don't worry about stats and records, in a video game, like he does because unlike him they don't need to validate their self-worth with how they perform in a video game.

    So therefore, anyone that has a bad record, high era, or low batting average isn't good at the game.

    But no worries; I heard that he may be seeking professional help for it.

    Is this game fun to you? Is it? I’d say based on your 28 negative posts a day crying about it that it is not fun for you. Didn’t you quit until ‘22 anyway?

    So let me get this straight, your opponent bunts with Freddie Freeman (who the game auto shifts for) and you just assume that he’s trying to get into a freeze off. FYI a lot of people bunt with Freddie to beat the shift because: wait for it….. it’s a smart heads up play!!! Also FYI had Freddie grounded out to second there is high likelyhood of a freeze off because there is a bug in the game since patch 18 that has lead to the kind of freeze off you are speaking of. But you are obviously correct that your opponent was just trying to make you suffer through a freeze off. 🙄 Maybe think twice before posting this garbage because you know what assumptions do!!!! Need I say more!!!

    Nice man you obviously put me in my place.

    “A DRaG BuNT to tHe SeCOnd BASeMan”

    If you think that is a good baseball play or worse yet, a smart strategy in the show than you are an absolute moron and just showed off your massive IQ. Pay attention before you try and come in all high and mighty with your take on someone’s post.

    You doubled down on that intelligence by explaining how a groundball to 2B would cause a freezeoff. Thank you sir!

    Ok Mr Smarty Pants let me break this down for you in the simplest possible terms: a drag bunt can happen to both sides of the field depending on how late or early the player actually shows bunt also the direction which a drag bunt can/will be influenced by where the pitch location is aka inside pitch generally speaking a drag bunt will be pulled and outside pitch a drag bunt will be hit the opposite way. These are some reason for why a drag bunt might be hit a certain direction and they can be a combination of both as well. This game makes it hard to aim bunts in certain directions do to dynamics of the game and limitations of the controller. So people have to rely on what I previously said to get bunts placed properly. Apparently you are not capable of intelligently thinking this through before you post this garbage to the forums. You just assume that someone is trying to exploit something for the sole purpose of being toxic and screwing you over. You might have a valid point if your opponent was trying to say I don’t know, intentionally throwing balls into the ground constantly to get weird animations from his catcher which can lead to freeze offs, or allowing fly balls to drop in by making the outfielders not field the ball which also causes weird animations and freeze offs have been known to occur, or this is my favorite, intentionally loading the bases and then quickly stepping off on the next pitch which was a for sure freeze off at the beginning of the game cycle before a patch fixed it. Like I said before, just because a freeze off happened doesn’t mean it was intentional.

    I’m going to bump every post about freezes. I have nothing else to do because I’m sitting here in a BR freeze off when I am up 3-1 against a guy I was clearly better than. He won’t quit because he’s a [censored].

    SDS: we want to hear about your plans for addressing freeze offs.
