Suspensions / Ejections after bench clearing brawls

natenmc · 07-26-2024, 02:47 PM

After the patch, when bench clearing brawls occur, no one is ejected or suspended. They stay in the game like nothing happened. This has occurred multiple times.

Can you make sure suspensions are still enabled in your game. If it is, you can try unchecking and the checking again to see if it takes. Just a thought.

That was the first thing I checked. Suspensions were on. That's why I thought it was weird when the brawls happened, but I didn't need to replace anyone.

I also did the check and uncheck thing - still happened.

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help. Hopefully a developer or someone can provide some insight.

How many brawls are you seeing? I don't see very many at all. I only think I remember seeing one in my game all of last season.

And should we assume that there needs to be an ejection and/or suspension after a "brawl"? I mean, most brawls are just all the players running out onto the field and asking each other where they're going for dinner that night. MLB is not like the NBA where they automatically suspend and fine players for coming out on the court.

I hit 5 batters in a row with three brawls and no ejections. I don't think it's MLB saying "boys will be boys"

There are some cases where players are not ejected - in historical exhibition mode, if you're playing with historical lineups or transactions on, exhibition or spring training games, etc... In normal situations, you should get ejections after a bench clearing brawl, but there may be some other scenarios too, if ejecting players would put teams past their eligible players too, for example.
