Runners on second and third and the CPU pitches out. And the announcer keeps telling me that pitch outs are rare, every time they keep pitching out.

this sucks

A couple of years ago I lined one off the pitcher's head straight up in the air and they called infield fly. I've always wanted to ask an umpire if that was a legit call or not.

@remolian_psn said in Maintenance?:

the server must have just have crashed right? The maintenance message must be some default setting.

It wouldn't surprise me if they replaced unhandled server exception with this message.

The people who complained about the servers aren't on here because they can finally play the game. Being able to play the game is kind of the whole point, isn't it?

The shills are still here because... shills gotta shill I guess. That and try and one up each other with how long they've been playing The Show.

Reaching out to the Ballplayer Designers.

How's that reaching out going?

While deliberate malfeasance can't be ruled out, I think staggering incompetence is also a possibility.

You've just described this game in a nutshell. As far as someone helping you, the people who should be able to help you either can't or won't.

I just don’t get it...

Same thing the overnight SDS server admin said when rebooting the XP box didn't work.

How do you do, fellow kids?

They got started a little early tonight. Tip of the cap for the initiative.

The “Future Stars” Nomar Mazara card is a masher. The real guy is not.

I just took a look at the stats for my DD team and my RTTS pitcher has 24,932 strikeouts in 11 games. Also, I've never pitched him in a DD game.

Create a new RTTS player in The Show 20. Play it whenever you can't get into The Show 21. At the end of the week, month, etc. see which player has more progress.

I just got to play for 3 minutes! Sure I got kicked out again but what a 3 minutes!

I put in a bid for a card and immediately got a server error. The bid list didn't update with my bid so I finalized the order again and then got the server error again. I figured I'd try it one more time. Still got the error and still the list didn't update. Then I noticed my stubs had gone done the cost of the three bids. And now I can't get in to cancel the bids and/or sell the extra cards. Hooray for server errors.

After my last start my pitching coach talked to me about giving up too many walks. I walked exactly zero batters in eight innings.

Within 5 years, MLB the Show will have become a baseball-themed battle royale FPS.
