Tip of the cap
-
I don't play online all that often, but have been making a push to get all the ranked and BR cards I'm missing
Tried out DeGrom online, and ended up dominating someone (I'm not good, so neither are my opponents typically). In the 6th, he bunted with a speedy guy (one of the milb awards guys) during a perfecto and I thought nothing of it, it was a 1-0 game.
In the 9th, with 1 out, the score was more than a run and the speedy game came up again. What did the opponent do? Replaced him with a different, slower right hand batter. Much respect for this. Basically the guy was going to try to break up the thing, but not via a cheap [censored] infield hit.
And then with two outs in the bottom of the ninth he got a clean single after working the count a little. And I just sat there wishing there was a way in game to give him a tip of the cap. Much respect for that dude.
Of course if they added a tip of the cap animation people would troll with it, but I wish there was a way to show respect somehow.
