Pinch-hitting bug

TheDROCK · 05-29-2004, 06:13 PM

I've noticed recently that when i try to pinch-hit for a player, the pinch-hitter will show up in the lineup, but the original hitter will show up at the plate and on the play-by-play.

anyone else noticing this???

Soto was suppose to pinch hitter for sweeney in the 9th inning. it shows up in the box (without an at-bat for soto), but he isnt listed in the game log:

Can you give me some additional details? I play most of my games out and have NEVER had this happen.

Steve, I think it had to do with the DH bug again. Sweeney is listed as the DH above.

Yeah TheDROCK,
This version of baseball does not allow you to pinch hit for the DH. Even though this topic has been discussed ad infinitum, the developers do not feel this problem warrants fixing. Maybe you should only play National League games.

By the way Steve, do you even read the topics posted here and forward them to Markus? As much as this topic has been brought up you can't even remember it?

Hey troll, can I call you troll, or is that too proper of a name for ya, I have a question for you. Besides the posting of the box score, in any of his posts, does he mention that it was the DH that he pinch-hit for? Nope. It was in a boxscore that he posted that I'm sure Steve glanced at because the poster never mentioned that it was for the DH...
