I don't know, I just give them whatever seems fitting, I think it has a bit of a high kick to it.

OK. Since I'm probably not gonna make a carbon copy stat-wise, I'm gonna see if I can breeze him through MLB Life, though it mtght take me longer to edit him to a team and whatnot. Sorry if this is an inconvenience.

Not really an inconvenience, as I'm not needing him to continue, and I have things to do other than continue this.

I am, however, curious as to how or if this is coming along so far? No rush, just curious.

Successes out-hit Brewers but lose 2-0
In a game that was a great opportunity for the Successes to move up in the standings, their offense couldn't get anything done, although they out-hit the Brewers 7-6. Successes pitcher Willy Legend was dominant, but not dominant enough for his team to win, his record fell to 6-2, as he gave up 2 runs in 9 innings pitched, one of them on a home run by M.Cameron, it would be his 9th of the year. Stetter was lights-out for the Brewers, holding the Successes off the scoreboard in 7.2 innings, when their manager decided his pitch count was high enough, he allowed 6 hits in this time, but none of them were costly. The Successes pulled out all the stops to try to break a shutout, bringing in 2 pinch hitters to improve their already strong 3-4-5 spot. Nothing they did worked though as Gagne shut them down for the save, striking out one. The Successes greatest rally killer was Patrick, as he grounded into two double plays.

Willy Legend was anything but silent to reporters after the game, "I know hitting isn't exactly easy, and these guys don't have much experience at this level, but manufacturing a run or two isn't as hard as they're making it. First of all, Patrick, if you have a runner on first with nobody out, look at how the pitcher approaches you instead of just swinging blindly at the first pitch you see. If he pitches low, take advantage of it and bunt, if he pitches high, just try to knock it over one of the infielders, if he's pitching down the middle, I shouldn't even have to tell you what to do. This isn't College baseball anymore, this is the majors, step it up, I think most of the team could use that message."

The manager was also reached for comment, "I feel bad for Willy, nobody who pitches like that should be credited with a loss, it's understandable that he's angry. Our main shortcoming seems to be hitting for power, we didn't get any extra base hits in the whole game, and a lot of our games feel like that. Obviously our pitching isn't the problem, our ERA is lowest in the NL East, and second lowest in the MLB. At a quick glance, our hitting doesn't seem to be too bad either, we're tied for the highest batting average in our league, but our extra-base hits are few and far between, and that has been a problem. We need veterans who still have a bit of power, and know how to hit in the clutch. Our team has very little worth trading, however, besides Willy Legend, and we need him. Obviously, he's the face of our franchise right now, he has one of the best ERA's on the team, and a great batting average as well. As the teams only experienced veteran, we also need him to be a mentor and role model for all of the younger players, if the team didn't have his motivation they would find it very easy to just give up after games like this, his outburst of anger earlier was unlike him, but it definitely wasn't uncalled for."

After the game:
Successes record: 24-25, 2.5 games behind, 4th place.
Brewers record: 27-21, 1st place.

At the moment, yes.

At this point, Alvin's agent will have to let me know if he still demands a trade, and how well the team he's traded to must be doing.


That was never really answered, I know Alvin wouldn't want to be traded to a worse team if how badly we're doing is why he wanted to be traded.

He wants to be dealt to a team with a pitching weakness, but that is poised to make a playoff run.

Cameron's Home Runs extend Brewer's win streak to 5 games in 7-3 win over Charlotte:

Jonathan's win-loss record for Charlotte fell in 0-5 as nothing he threw worked for him, he pitched 6.1 innings and allowed 7 runs, getting taken out after throwing at Cameron's head, he had hit 2 home runs against Jonathan earlier. "We don't condone that type of play, it is unacceptable, and he's lucky I'm not bumping him down to relief pitching" Successes manager was less than thrilled at Jonathan's performance all around, but would comment on his team's hitting: "I'm glad the hitting has finally gotten something done, if we could only get all aspects of our game working at once, we could be able to work out some wins and get right back into the tight race in this division, I'll see what I can do about finding a hitter to anchor our lineup, no one player can support a whole team though, the players we have will need to get something working for them as well."

The Brewer's power hitters did their job, hitting 4 home runs and 6 total extra base hits, their starting pitcher, Suppan, even got into the action, getting a hit and getting robbed on 2 line drives hit near Joey, Charlotte's shortstop, a couple of the several great plays made in the game, which still weren't enough to keep the offense in it.

Frank was asked to comment on an amazing catch he made, leaping deep in the outfield and later running into the center field wall, "I'm still a little dizzy, but I think I'm all right, I shouldn't miss any time because of this."

After the game:
Successes record: 24-26, tied for 4th place, 2.5 games behind.
Brewers record: 28-21, 1st place, 1 game ahead of 2nd place.
