2 bugs I noticed while managing

jerem77 · 04-10-2002, 08:28 AM

I apologize if either of these have been mentioned before.

#1 playing as the Cubs (rolens roster) Darren Lewis gets hit by a pitch, he charges the mound and is ejected. The game asks me to put in a pinch runner so I put in Mark Bellhorn. However when I went back to the game Darren Lewis was still being shown on the field, and the pbp still said Lewis. Bellhorn's name was in the lineup card and after the inning was over I put him in at 2b and moved Deshields to cf, so there were no long term effects. I guess this is more of a cosmetic bug.

#2 with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th my pitcher struck out the batter yet he still ended up on first. The pbp didn't mention a dropped ball and the count was 1-2 so I couldn't have misread it as a walk. I don't have the exact pbp with me, but I can post it later if you need me to.

Thank you for the help

How can you possibly have a problem with Todd "Mendoza Line" Hundley?

jerem77 · 04-11-2002, 05:15 AM

Actually through the first half of April Hundley had a higher average, and more hr's (1) than Sosa. In fact Sosa has never hit a homer in any game I've managed. Has anyone noticed anything like this?

I played a solo league where Barry Bonds hit .180 for a month without hitting a single home run. He got hot after that and finished the season over .300 with 40+ homers. It's probably just the randomness of the game where Sosa is on the lower end of it right now, or is in a slump. If you are having a problem with all players not hitting home runs you may want to decrease the number of home runs in the league totals. (Decrease the number in the totals = an increase in the # of homers hit.)
