Now that's a pickoff

Radsmats · 04-11-2007, 11:12 AM

Version: Happened before and after installing patch.
PC/MAC: PC
What were you doing? Managing a game in one-pitch mode, historical seasons, from Lahman database.
What happened? With a runner on first, the catcher throws behind the runner (dozy bastard) picking him off. No text describing the play comes up. Without a pause to let me input anything, the next at-bat resolves itself, even if it's the next half-inning, and then the text comes up telling me that there was a successful pickoff by the catcher and, BTW, there's been another at-bat.
Reproducible? Yes. Happens every time there's a pickoff (has been 3-4 times so far).
Problem occurs with other leagues? Yes, at least in historical seasons. I ran one fictional season but don't recall if it happened there.
Oh, and I love the fact you built in a catcher pickoff play.
Thanks,
R

I can't get into TT for some reason atm.

They were actually there in 2006, but in testing they were far too rare compared to real life numbers.

I bought 2006 but couldn't get interested in it (the feel was too much like its predecessors, which I played to death) so I'll take your word for it. 2007, on the other hand, is interfering with my real life. I concur with Gamespy that this is the best baseball game ever made.
Thanks,

Glad you're enjoying the game. I have logged this as TT #3474, hopefully we can get this one squared away!

Thanks,

Steve
