I finished a marathon last night where I beat the Orioles 9-8 in 14 innings. It was grueling but I was uber pissed in the 8th. I was up 6-5 and brought Valverde in. I misplayed TWO routine pop ups in the outfield. It's just too unforgiving with the yellow landing marker because you can't see behind your player to tell if you are on it or not. I'm just going to switch to a different defender now and let the cpu catch those. That led to 3 unearned runs (all counted against Valverde) and an 8-6 deficit. But Cabrera and V-Mart hit HRs in the 9th to tie it at 8! No scores until the 14th when I finally pushed across a run. 26 hits for me! Best offensive day ever! More goofy injuries in this game to the point I think it's just broken while playing. I may turn them off. |

I was down 2-1 going in to the 8th but scored 5 runs in the 8th and 2 more in the 9th. The 2k servers are down so I can't load my box scores and stats but I won 9-1. I've really hit the ball well the last two games although Baltimore's pitchers suck. The difference between good and bad pitchers is really noticeable - almost too big. |

I don't mean this in a bad way but I'm glad you're sucking at the game early on, you're a relentless gamer Rudy and I know you'll be dominating in no time but I think this is going to make you a better player and we all will benefit from the tips that you give us from being patient enough to struggle along, I don't have that patience anymore, so I commend you

In my last game Cabrera hit a HR with a contact swing on a 1-2 count. It took me about 70 games to hit a HR with a contact swing last year so it's a big improvement. There is still a big difference between a contact and power swing but it's not as big as last year. |

I posted this in the general impressions too. I'm now 3-3. Well the cpu still pulls their starters too soon. They should never pull a starter until he's finished at least 5 innings or given up at least 5 runs imo. I'm seeing the cpu pull a starter when he's only given up 3 runs through 4. And the commentary is often bad in this area too like 2K10. When I do a mound visit in inning two after only giving up one or two runs (to get a pitcher's composure back) Steve Phillips should not comment that I'm just getting my bullpen ready to pull him. The result of these early pulls is the bullpen gets overused and abused by your offense late in games. In my Tigers series against the Orioles I scored 28 runs in 3 games! But 19 of those were in the 8th and 9th innings and 15 of those 19 were in the 8th alone. |
