Make "vs Pitcher" stats sortable while playing out a game

Sweed · 01-07-2022, 12:16 PM

Currently one can sort "batters stats vs pitcher" on his card but...
the ability goes away when playing out a game. You know, when you really need it

It would be great while it a game to sort by team and be able to see how your batter performed against your opposition pitchers in a glance. Also to see how the opponent fared against my pitchers. Want to know who to get up in the pen for the batter leading off the next inning. Bring up his vs Pitcher screen, sort to your club, and see how he did against all of your relievers in a glance.

Currently while playing out a game we can only see the default, ie sorted by name. Please add sorting that can be done while playing out a game as seem in the second screen shot.

Apart from historical curiosity, batter vs. pitcher isn't particularly useful because the samples are always tiny.

Except in OOTP some players have a tendency to "own" others. You can agree or disagree with this being in but that is beside the point, it is there.

This is already sortable on the "out of game" player card. Not seeing it as being something hard to include while in game. But then, I am not a programmer.

I love this idea....the game already stores this information, so I wouldn't think this would be too difficult to implement. Same with sortable team stats....but hey I am not a programmer, so what do I know lol.

I would love this as well. A batter's record against the opposing pitcher is also something that frequently is mentioned in real life during baseball broadcasts, so having it more available when playing out games would add to the immersion, in my opinion.

bump for v27.
It also appears this sort was removed from the game entirely in v26. Why?

Let's put it back and while we are at it make it available while playing out a game.
Please and thanks.

A yes please from me too for the return of this sorting function and its expansion to being available for in-game use too.
