<![CDATA[Strikeout Conspiracy Theory]]>

<![CDATA[Strikeout Conspiracy Theory]]>I have a theory that when you play on the higher difficulties as a batter, the game has a certain strikeout quota it has to fill in order to quantify the step up in difficulty so that even if players are generally doing well, they can’t claim that it’s too easy.

I do well at hitting but no matter what I do I average 1 strikeout per game on ‘Legend’ difficulty.

And if I do manage to go one game without getting one, I’ll end up with 2 strikeouts the next game so the game can keep filling out that quota.

The amount of times I’ve had 4 ABs and no strikeouts and then the game ends up going to extra innings and, low and behold, there’s that strikeout the game needed to keep the numbers up.

It’s happened to me so many times now it’s getting beyond a coincidence and I really think there’s something going on. Ridiculous that no matter what I do, no matter how focused and disciplined I am, the game still finds a way to get that strikeout.
