Most devastating loss in my gaming history
I've never had a no-hitter in my entire OOTP career (all versions). Never even carried one into the 7th.
0 hits, 1 out in the 9th, stud closer on a hotstreak standing on the mound, facing the worst team in baseball. What could go wrong? I can't think of any failure like this in any game I've ever played in my life. Don't think I'll be able to turn OOTP back on for a few weeks.

Why was the starter taken out of the game in the 6th inning while working on a no-hitter? And after only 84 pitches thrown with a 2-0 lead?

My point exactly ... unless, it was one of those games that was sim ... ... then you're in the AI's mercy ...

Out for 5 weeks with a partially torn labrum.
I ran a sim 75 years, then took over the Coyotes who were last in power rankings and last in minor league rankings (I think 10 straight losing seasons), cut almost all the players who had negative personalities in their scouting reports, cut or traded all overpriced players, and cut or traded the top 5 prospects. So I am thin all over, especially OF right now.

I downloaded a billion logos, caps, jerseys from everywhere I could find and put them all in one folder, decided on my team names, and then picked through files to find what I liked. So I'm not sure exactly where I found them, but here is a pic of them and the files I used:
Not really happy with the game logo for Thunderbirds, so I might change it to the cap logo. Just been too lazy.

Yup, he allowed 6 runs, but 3 of those were inherited and tagged to Rockwell (who entered the inning with a 1.67 ERA).

Good catch. For some reason i looked only briefly at the scoreboard and thought the final was 10-3, not 10-5. Makes more sense now.

I feel you, in my dynasty my (ex) closer blew three games in a row, horribly. First was a typical meltdown, second a fiasco where he started the ninth w bases empty and a three run lead, and a couple games later I put him in the ninth inning with a big lead for a confidence builder and he blew that game too. Fool me three times, shame on me.
