    WOW! I suck at this

    The :cinnr: suck at this game. The :bmil: no hit me with 3 pitchers last night for a loss. I believe my beloved :cinnr: had 20 strikeouts amongst them. It was a wonderful night of baseball... Not to take away anything from Dan because he obviously played well :)

    Then....

    Game two I am at least getting the bat on the ball, but in like the 3 or 4 inning in a scoreless game I have an error which would have led to the 3rd out which instead the next batter bloops one in center field which as I am running up on the ball it then bounces over my head and then two runs score with an inside the park homerun :(, which was not the only one the :bmil: had in game two. It happned to me twice. So it leads to ask when the lonely :bmil: can whallop the :cinnr: that bad then it must be the operator. I have got to learn how to hit the damn ball :(.

    Great games Dan Look forward to my beating tonight ;)

    Sometimes it's just the game that beats you. Sounds like you are still having fun. Plenty of time to make up these early season losses Troy. Let's play some exhibition games for practice.

    I think the game flips a coin while in the loading screen and decides who will win. As long as you don't suck it up big time the game will go as planned.

    That's funny that you guys think that way. I don't feel that way at all when playing this game. Now, I will say that I have a much harder time when there is any type of lag than if there is none at all.

    Hey I'm 0-5 so far, and I have to say it's my lack of being able to lay off pitches. That and the fact that when I send two base runners around and they both return when I try to pull one back.

    I have been pretty lucky with my connections. Lag has effected me maybe for the first two innings with repsect to timing my swing. About the worst thing I can do is play a game offline right before playing online. Timing is way off!

    That is bogus. The people that are winning are able to lay off the bad pitches and make the opponents pitch to them. You also have to know how to pitch and not throw all strikes. Now once in a while they are some bogus errors or the pitchers start hanging them but that happens in the real game also.
