I would say pitch away, with as many sliders breaking away as possible. They will most likely roll over everything, causing them to wait back. Then, blow the fastball up and in and he should be the most confused person ever

The only thing I've noticed in regards to this, and it happened to me again just last night actually, is the catcher not tagging on a steal of home if you run towards the runner. For example, my opponent is attempting a suicide squeeze and the batter misses the bunt. With the runner coming home I run my catcher towards the runner because I'm assuming he will attempt to go back to third. If the runner continues running home however, my catcher will just stand there or run past him depending on how I'm moving the controller but he will not tag the runner. This has happened to me a few times and I have to try and remind myself just to not move my catcher until the runner goes back to third. If he just keeps coming home I just have to leave my catcher alone and then he will make the tag. At times it happens so fast and my initial instinct is just to run towards the runner and then it results in a run against me if he continues home. Unfortunately in the case of last night, it resulted in a run and I ended up loosing by 1 which makes it even worse.

I’m glad the event goes to hof tomorrow. I’m sick of opponents who can’t hit shot but get saved by the game basically saying good good means nothing. It’s either, early, late or perfect perfect. Kind of kills good contact

I’ve had two instances where I’m making a double play with the 1B by running over the first base and then throwing to 2nd and then the player at 2nd just stands there and lets the player advance onto 2nd base....

I keep Robinson on the bench, a long with othr strong defensive guys that can hit. really my only defensive holes are 2nd and 1B and I replace Hornsby with Sandberg and Musial with Robinson late in the game with a lead. Right now I'm also running Biggio at catcher for prestige chase so I'll replace him with Posey for D too.

A well thought out bench goes a long way, don't just think about bats.
