My worst was going perfect for 11 2/3 Innings and giving up a single, being pulled and having my reliever give up a home run and I get the loss plus I get a half bar of choke artist.

I don't think anyone anywhere would call a guy who pitches almost 12 perfect innings a choke artist, but heh, what can you do.

Yikes! that's terrible Kkhrag, my story is nothing compared to that. A whole half-bar is fricken insane.

I'm thinking you just have to play superb.

If it has any realism, choke artist may never go down. Once you make a name for yourself for not playing in the clutch, people will always think back to that.

Just pitch well in the end and it will go away. That means don't be taken out for giving up a run. My guess is that when you give up a run in extra innings, it goes up exponentially compared to usual. It is probably made for relivers.

Probably went up because technically the game winning run was on you.

That's what I was saying, even though its not your fault and that reliving idiot gave up the homer.
