Pitching Triple Crown

RANGER11JP · 05-15-2012, 01:52 PM

Why is it that if a PITCHER wins the TRIPLE CROWN OF PITCHING it warrants the same hoopla in the newspaper as when a BATTER accomplishes the equivalent, yet it never makes it into the PITCHERS history, but it does get put in the BATTERS history?

And while I am nit picking, I realize that Markus & Company are not all native English speakers, but can we get some syntax changes? RETURNED from retirement or Came back from, or came out of, instead of Retired from retirement.
and... WAS claimed off waivers instead of Got claimed.

Sorry if I have offened anyone. That IS NOT my intention.

the retired from retirement thing always was a bit odd, but I think it is because how the player is made retired within the game engine.

And the pitcher triple crown thing is a no brainer to me. It bugged me back to the 2006 version, and I hope sooner rather than later it gets addressed.
