I'm gonna celebrate the walk-off here for the first time! Played some cheeser. wanted to bunt dance the entire game. that doesn't bother me. i just pitch. Dude scored his only run on a single by Sandberg, then 2 steals and gets the pitcher up who lays down a perfect squeeze down 1-0. I couldn't hit anything...everything i put good contact on was a flyout to warning track or line out.
Get to top of ninth. he has like 3 hits and that 1 run. first batter he hits, next 2 guys get out, then bregman gets on with a wild pitch on a bad swing...Bellinger up next...Crushed into the RF bleachers for a Dinger. I win 3-1! Most satisfying victory i've ever had!!!
One of my losses was to a BAD player who did his damndest to abuse the rundown, bunt, and steal mechanics.
He barely swung at pitches and almost always gambled on beating the pitcher or the tag animation.
It sucked, but that's something SDS has to fix: exploits are on them.
