I love teaching people about baseball, everyone who knows me IRL knows to call me if they have a baseball related question. keep asking the questions we will keep answering them (wish i woulda seen the thread 1st  ) |
You're very close about my age; I'll be turning 22 in June.
I stumbled upon OOTP awhile back and fell in love with it. This game is really what sparked my interest in baseball. Before OOTP, I knew what ERA, AVG, OBP, etc. meant and how the core of the game worked... Just the really basic stuff. When I started playing OOTP excessively, I began learning some of more obscure things.
The pitcher W/L decisions kind of threw me off because to me, it was (and honestly still is to some extent) a little counter-intuitive. You know, a pitcher who only pitches 0.1 innings can "win" the game.
Regardless, I appreciate all of the helpful responses I've received in this forum, both in this thread and others. I love this forum due to its plethora of kind, helpful users; you don't find something like that every day.
I just hope that someday I'll know enough about baseball to be able to assist future users who are in my shoes. So please just bear with me while I learn more.
