It's called Starter Finisher in 07 Success Mode, but as I said, I think it's either a typo or mis-translation

MARCH 1st - 24th

March 1st:

I can not believe it, I'm playing as a reliever against the D-Backs! I entered the game in the 7th inning. I gave up a hit on my first batter, he advanced to second after a ground out, but I ended up keeping the game the inning scoreless with a pop fly and a strike out! The manager told me that I did a great job and if I keep playing like this, I will become a major leaguer!
The coach came up to me and told me if if I wanted to donate to charity, after a while, I told him I will donate $1,000 dollars for each time I record a hold.

March 4th and 5th:

I happened to play reliever again, but this time aganist the Rangers, I felt confident in myself, but the first batter hit one far over the center field fences...I ended up pitching 1.2 innings with 3 strikeouts...The manager told me I was going to be a great player but I needed to improve so I ended up playing having to in the triple AAA for the season opening, the next day, one of my teammates called up and said I was going to donate $10,000 for a hold, I told him I wasn't but he told me the newspaper said that I would donate 10,000 per a hold, I went up to the coach and he ended up just running away after a few minutes speaking to him...this really was a rough start to the MLB...

March 24th:

I'm back in Chicago.

Looking forward to this. I just can't get past that trollface

Anyway, here's March 25th-30th

March 25th

I ended up get starred at because of my gyroball in AAA practice, I also ended up practicing my hard shuuto.

March 26th

I watched MLB POWER PROS news, they were talking about who will win this season, most thought the Yankees would win, others thought the Tigers and Red Sox, no one said anything about the Cubs through...

March 27th

The AAA manager told me to be the starting pitcher for opening day, I was very happy, but not overjoyed because I wasn't in the MLB...

March 30th

I knew I had to keep working on my breaking balls, they had low break, I knew I can't just rely on my gyroball in the majors!

Hard-Shuuto went to level 2 (from level 1)

March 31st-

We had to play against the Milwaukee Brewers, their starter pitcher was Great Shields

Stats:

Top speed 92 mph
Control F 108
Stamina B 143
Breaking Balls:
Level 2 Slider
Level 2 Cutter
Level 1 Changeup

The first few innings, I would always give up two hits to the Brewers, but they never step in to get points. My team scored a RBI in the second to keep me relaxed. The Brewers then just keep hitting grounders straight to the infield, even if the grounder got pass, the inning was over after they got out! It was only until the 8th, I was tired after pitching for awhile, there was a man on second 1 out, I was able to get a grounder out, but let a single go through, I was taken out when there was a man on third and first 2 outs. The pitcher ended up saving the team. We won!

Cubs 1
Brewers 0

Winning Pitcher:
Li (1-0)

Losing Pitcher:
G.Shields (0-1)

I made no strike outs but won the game that day! The manager came up to me that day and told me that although I had some bad innings, I never let them get to home base which was great! If I keep this up, I will my dream of a major leaguer will come true!

K.Hart VS G.Bennett (If I don't start, I will not tell the pitchers stats)

Cubs 4
Pirates 3

I went in the game in a tight moment, there was a guy on third and second, one out. I ended up letting them score...I pitched 3.1 innings no strike outs. After the game, Oakley told me about a restaurant who had a waitress named Emily, when we were eating there, a waitress told us a guy ran off without paying. Oakley was tired out after 1 minute of running, I caught up to the guy and captured him. After that, she let him pass, she introduced herself to me, it turned out she was Emily!

April 21st

Oakley told me when we were eating about his agent, Joshua Perkins, it turned out he was eating where we were to, he introduced himself, althrough he doesn't look like a guy who will sign contracts happily.

You mean the first phase of the coach's plot to steal 20,000 dollars from you?

Lol, nah I save money, a lot of money in MLB Life mode, plus, it's only $10,000 a lot less XD
