    Playing my offline season today I whooped up on the Tigers 18-0 and recorded my first no-hitter gaining the achievement. I figured I'd post here to see if anyone else has reached this milestone yet?

    Yeah like the first day I had the game :p

    I was pissed too, because not only was it a no hitter, but it was a perfect game, and I wanted an achievement for that too. Stupid game.

    I pitched a perfect game too. I thought I was going to get the 20-run achievement too, but just barely missed it.

    Does anyone else HATE that you can't get achievements online? While I realize its easy for two guys to hoop up and whore them, it sucks for the rest of us that just play real games. I finally got the rob a homerun the other day offline.

    My hitting in the league has gone to crap lately too, so I think I'm going to start playing franchise for the hell of it. If I'm not gonna be able to hit, might as well have fun offline too.

    lol, my hitting in the Sim league is on the decline while my prospect hitting is on the rise. Go Figure.

    they are weird to use this season , the outfielding is a mystery and batting is sporadic at best....

    Pitching is a whole other ball of wax :shock:

    when you guys unlocked these achievements , were they in Detroit or respective home field....

    The online achievements are whack. Some work, some don't, they just seem random :-?

    I'm playing on Pro, and the hitting is really difficult to hit homeruns. Its wierd I think All-Star is easier to hit on, but harder for pitching.

    I used El Duque when I got fifteen Strikeouts. It was crazy too because I had to strike out 10 of the last 12 batters to get it, which I did. If you get good at mixing pitches, especially if you have a guy with good offspeed and a good fastball, you can work them harder for strikeouts. So with Hernandez if you mix it up and use the Ephus, you can easily get it. They can't hit that ephus, you can't throw it everytime or anything because they will start timing it, but if you pick your spots and mix it up he's unhittable on Pro :p

    You can also cheese it up against the computer, its not going to complain ;)

    Yeah Pro is a walk in the park, after I got the Offensive Explosion Achievement I knew I had to up the difficulty. I am with you Bx, I put my difficultly up to All-Star and now I have close games, a couple losses, and maybe like 3-5 K's a game. Than again I am playing with the O's :roll:

    Its weird though, when I play All-Star I score a TON more runs and beat the Computer up, but on Pro I suck for some reason at hitting :p


    Anyone get any secret achievements?

    Really? I've got tossed a few times, didn't think I got that one. Maybe I did though, I know I got tossed. I got Randolph tossed last night after Glavine hit one freakin' batter. I guess its because he was the first batter after one of their guys robbed me of a homerun. lol

    This statement right here makes me not believe anything else you've to say.. I know better than that...lol..

    Anyways.. The game i feel is broke when going from pro to all star.. ON All Star, Strikeouts are rare and homeruns are plentious. ON pro i racked up 10+ homeruns with 4 different players over 15+ games.. All Star im still cranking them out at a slow pace but the computer is going yard every 4 or 5 AB's.. Homeruns are the Devil in this game. What happen to baseball..? Really is a downer in my book.. Just my opinion...

    The achievements ive gotten all of them except for the no hitter (closest one was 7 inning). 20 runs (16 closest).
