Started a new season mode with an expansion team, simulated the season and we snuck in to the playoffs with a record of 85-77! Then we won the world series! As an expansion team in it's first year!

A Jack Marlewski saying that I had not heard before: on a homerun - "a beautiful swing on that one!!"

In the same game, you know the secretary who pops in during games once in awhile to say something totally UNHELPFUL? Well, I am winning by two runs in the top of the 9th, and my batter just hits a laser down the right field line that is nabbed on a diving played by the computer's first baseman. That annoying secretary has the nerve to say "What are you doing!"

In the same game, you know how when a player was in perfect position to make a play right from the start, Jack will often say "he played that one perfectly"? Personally, I find it very annoying when he says that when I pop out to the catcher, but that might just be my frustration with popping out to the catcher! Anyway, today he said it with about the pitcher I popped out to.

That sounds nuts!

You simulated the full season? Just for kicks?

Yes! I couldn't believe it. Here's the roster and lineups for the team: http://www.mlbppworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=8319&start=0

So my Wii was malfunctioning, requiring me to restart my game 3 times. same game date, same opponent, but each time, the computer had a different starting pitcher.

I steal a lot of bases with my current team. I might AVERAGE 3 per game. More when the catcher has a D or lower arm strength and the pitcher maxes out at 92 or less.

Anyway, my lead off batter led off the game with a single, and for the 1st time that I recall (maybe ever, not sure), the computer pitched out on its 1st pitch to my 2nd batter with a runner on 1st. I don't mean just missing high - a definite pitchout high and way outside with no exclamation point. Then, for definitely the 1st time ever, it pitched out for a 2nd consecutive time, letting the count get to 2-0 with a runner on 1st and no out.

My second baseman dove into the hole to snare the ball, but I knew I wouldn't have time to make the throw to 1st, so I had my guy throw to second so my shortstop would make the throw. My second baseman, who does not have any blue abilities at all, made the toss to second while still on his stomach, and my SS made the throw in time. I had not seen that before – The second baseman make me throw before getting up from the dirt.

I was hoping it would work, and also hoping that if it did not work, that they would not charge my second baseman with an error

In one of those stadiums where the OF wall is not smooth - kinda bumpy - my player hit a deep fly ball that hit the left field wall and then bounced sharply left into the stands in foul territory. Was called a HR.

You know, as I read this, it doesn't sound that impressive,, but it was cool to see

It was where the Astros play. Petco?

I was glad it was called a HR, but I wonder if it should've been a ground rule double? Maybe if the ball never touches the grass, it's a HR. Like what happens if it hits the top of the wall or a foul poll...or Jose Conseco's head?

Makes logical sense for it not hitting the ground. But the Astros play in Minute Maid Park. Padres play at Petco. But I will try to recreate this haha
