In-Game Logic Error

AdmiralACF · 05-04-2003, 03:19 PM

I don't know if anyone else has had this happen, but I just played a game in which a tiny bug occurred. The situation: runner on first, the batter bunts it to the mound. The play-by-play says the second baseman covers first. The pitcher takes the ball and throws to first, but the throw is in the dirt. The game says that the first baseman (not the second baseman who is covering) scoops it out of the dirt, so you can see the problem.

Nothing big, just something I noticed and thought I would report.

Well, the second baseman becomes the first baseman in that particular situation.

Right, I understand that. But the play-by-play said something like:

"It's a bunt to the pitcher. Bellhorn covers first. The pitcher picks it up and throws it to first. The throw is in the dirt but Choi digs it out nicely...."

Unless both Choi and Bellhorn are covering, there's something a bit off going on. Like I said, it's nothing big, but I thought I would mention it.

Oh. Okay, well you didn't say Choi was the one who dug it out - you just said the first baseman. I see the problem. I doubt you could do this at this point, but it would be interesting to see who actually got the PO.
