Well, I was watching "For Love of the Game" this morning before school (2AM) and I was thinking, huh, what stats would Billy Chapel have if he was a real person? I know he'd have at least a level 4 curve, B stamina, B control perhaps, and battler, FOR SURE! But I wouldn't know what else he should have if he were created. What do you guys think? I know it's a movie and all, and we can't do a lot based on the little info we got, but I think he'd be like a righty CC Sabathia maybe? Nasty curve, good change, something like that you know?

He's a fictional guy in a film. I know he's a pitcher. I wouldn't know stats, though, as I haven't seen the movie.

Yea, he pitched a perfect game in his last outing in the movie. I know a few things we can give him, but I was wondering what you guys think he should get?

I was thinking something like this.

93 MPH
B Stamina (mid)
C Control (high)

Battler
Strong Finisher
Groundball Pitcher
Poker Face
Gold Glover

Pitches, I knew I forgot something. XD

1-2 Change-up
3-5 Curve

Unless you think it's something else?

Are we talking end of the movie Billy Chapel or the hotshot young Ace Billy Chapel?

That's my favorite baseball movie. I even play some of the soundtrack songs while I play MLB 09.

Also, they show his career stats for a very small moment during one part of the movie. But I don't remember what pitches he threw.

All I know is that he has a Curve, maybe even Drop curve from the looks of it. So do you think it'd be possible to make him with the stats given, or should we not do it at all?

Personally, I would give it a shot after this next Success mode character, but it'd be cool to see him in the game, you know?
