Best:
Epic walk-off homer with Aramis Ramirez against the White Sox
Worst:
Old 2007 season mode dream draft. I bought a ton of training items and didn't have enough money left to pay salaries.

Everybody's had a great moment in Season Mode, and everybody's had a bad moment. What are yours? My great moment was opening day of a Nationals franchise. It was a 4-4 tie in the bottom of the tenth with a runner on second. I brought in Wily Mo Pena to pinch hit earlier, and I decided to keep him in. Good move, as he sends a rocket to left center. The fielders didn't even try, they just walked back to the dugout. Some opening day! My worst moment? The countless times I've kept a pitcher in a game too long and got burned, or made a stupid fielding play (throws to the wrong base, missed balls in the outfield...) that led to multiple runs. What are your highlights and lowlights? |

Not sure if I can confine it to any one moment. But here are typical lowlights: 1) leaving a starter in too long. ALWAYS give up hits, and usually out of control. 2) Pitching too fast. Once I give up a hit or two, I get frustrated and become more of a thrower, just firing pitches in an attempt to get outs. 3) anything hit to third. I always move left by default, and when I am controlling the 3B I move him a few steps in the wrong direction, like EVERY time. 4) shallow outfield flies. I try to move the wrong guy - if it gives me OF'er, it's too shallow and I try to get the 2B to go out. If they give me 2B its too deep, but the OF'er won't come in (or he will come in and watch it drop). 5) lining into double plays, where your guy is a few steps off 2B or 3B and it's too fast for you to move back. Highlights: 1) Working a walk. EVER. Man these are too rare. Anytime I do it it's an accomplishment. 2) Fouling off pitches to get a 10+ pitch at-bat. I LOVE these. 3) Playing my startup scrubs and hitting homers with some of them. That's an awesome feeling. |

Oh wow, there's too many to remember for both. So I'll have to go with recent memories. Best: In my Rockies season mode, I was playing a home game (I don't remember who against), I was down by one run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, and it was the pitcher's turn to bat, so I brought in a pinch hitter, expecting to lose right there on that last batter. The pinch hitter was Dan Johnson. He ripped a triple in the gap in right center, and that was so unexpected. I did not see that coming. Willy Taveras followed with an RBI single to tie it, and Troy Tulowitzki jacked a walk-off two run homer right after to win the game. Worst: I was playing a game against the Padres in San Diego, who had Manny Ramirez on their team. The game was tied either in the ninth or in extras, and Manny came up to bat. I pressed the button to throw the pitch, and as soon as I did, my first thought was "Oh crap, why did I throw that?" Bam. Walk-off home run. |

This brings back a LOT of memories...and not in a good way. You say Ramirez, I say Jim Thome. |

Hmm I have a few One was with the Hawaii Eagles(not the log one), I had led my team to the World Series with an expansion team and won on a walk-off homerun by an E power shortstop in Rainbow Beach Stadium, it was pretty cool Then with all the adventures in the Eagles log were cool too. A few great playoff wins Hmm and interestingly enough I've played 2 one-game playoff games. I never thought they had those and then I was tied with the White Sox for the Central lead and I had to play a one game playoff. Then I played a useless one, one of us was already going to be the wild card winner but this game was to win the division and I lost My worst was playing as the Hawaii Eagles(I'm obsessed  ), I went 105-57 or something like that and an 87 win Red Sox team swept me. In Game 3 JD Drew robbed me of the game winning homerun with 2 outs in 9th down by 1 and 1 guy on, the fences are small they so he was able to jump over it
