Need Help in Finding Pinch Hitters PLEASE

RJB7777777 · 09-25-2006, 03:00 AM

Where in the world is the Pinch Hitters part in the Line-Ups?? I can not find them anywheres. In 6.5a we had a part for Pinch Hitters and I know I'm overlooking them in 2006. Could somebody please help me find them. I'm in the National League and I would like to set my Pinch Hitters up to bat for the Pitchers.

Thanks, Rick (RJB7777777)

This, from the game guide:

8.5.4. Pinch Hitters
In previous versions of OOTP, you could specify your preferred pinch hitters. In OOTPB, your staff makes these decisions automatically during games that are auto-played. Which pinch hitter is used depends on a lot of factors: player quality, game situation, the player’s personal strategic preferences, defined in Section 8.7.2, and others. For example, the computer usually won’t waste a team’s best available pinch hitter in the 6th inning with the bases empty. Of course, if you choose to play out your games, you control pinch hitting.

Thanks, Rick
