The most significant thing to me is that OOTP11 just FEELS like baseball.

It's Sunday night, and I really don't want to turn the computer off and go to bed. My team, the Cleveland Spartans, just finished an amazing game against one of our rivals, the Havana Tigres. We are in second place in the Summer League Northeast Division, and they are in first in the SL Southeast Division.

It was a real pitcher's duel, their number 1 starter against our number 1. Their guy went for 7 innings and ours went for 8. Lots of strikeouts. The game remained scoreless through 12 innings. In the top of the 13th, one of our guys doubled. I swear, the Havana crowd actually became quiet. The cheering dwindled to almost nothing.

Our next batter singled, but our guy on second held at third. Then, the Havana reliever threw a wild pitch, and our man scampered home.

In the bottom of the 13th inning, I sent in our closer and he sat down the top of the Havana batting order one, two, three.

I saved the game as a replay.

Cleveland 1
Havana 0

Many thanks to Markus and the OOTP11 beta testers for giving me a reason to smile as I begin another awful, depressing work week.
