Happy Easter!

This is my 3rd success mode player and first pitcher. I wanted to create a lefty reliever because I feel they're much harder to find in this game and extremely valuable as a result. Also, since I have a PS2, hardly anyone creates characters for my system, so I decided to take up the challenge myself! :twisted:

Anyway, I'm pretty happy with the outcome, except for the fact this player doesn't have "Dr. K". The Knuckleball has ended up being an excellent strike-out pitch though.

Enjoy!

Nice job. Is he based off anyone real?

Good combination of pitches.

Thanks.

Nope, not based off of anyone at all. I wanted to create a submarine pitcher and my first thought was to create a Japanese player (since submarine pitchers are much more common over there) with a lot of movement and a top speed around 90 mph (kinda similar to Chad Bradford). As the last couple of weeks unfolded; however, I ended up pretty happy with the movement on the pitches I already had and decided to focus on top speed instead.

Actually, I got Dr. Goodjob on this character and asked him to "overcome some troublesome areas". It worked, but I only ended up with something like "good sense" and "STR finish" (it was in the last 3 weeks of AAA, so maybe there weren't enough deficiencies for a big advancement?).

Anyway, I didn't save it and S/L'ed to boost my stats through practice on wk 4 instead. Oh well!

Like Chris Sabo's long, lost Japanese brother.
