MLB 11 : The Show

[Frenchy180]

Depending on what difficulty you're on, but I utilize the guess pitch feature. Guess 4SFB up in the zone and don't swing unless I get it until I get my first strike. Then I guess 4SFB down in the zone and don't swing unless I get it until I get my second strike. Once I get my second strike I guess 4SFB down in the zone and just try to fight everything else off until I get one.

It's not a perfect science by any means, but I win more than I lose. That's probably more from my pitching though, that is my strong point.

Yeah someone else pointed that out to me awhile back... good advice!

I've retirement 27 in a row, but didn't get the perfect game.

[Broncoholic3233]

Well, I am now at the same point the real Rockies are. Just, I don't suck like the real Rockies are right now

I simulate Jason Hammel and Esmil Rodgers starts, because the season is so long anyways, and games take forever.

I play on Veteran hitting and Hall of Fame pitching, due to the fact I suck at hitting, but am very good at pitching.

I traded quite a few AAA players for Brandon Phillips a few weeks ago. Got a good deal because he was really struggling, and still is.






Well, there is my team. I was bored as hell, so I typed all this out

Nice :thumb: I'll type up my roster, but won't go into stats... I play with Rookie batting, and whatever the default pitching is... The roster will be up in a bit...

Alright, I'm interested to see it.


I really haven't made any changes to my roster besides the Brandon Phillips trade and fill-ins for injured players. I never really do though. Pujols is on the trade block, but I know it isn't plausible so I don't really want to make the trade. However, when I just mess around and offer them Huston Street and Ian Stewart, they really like the trade, but like I said, no plausible.

[Southstander]

I have had a no no and a Perfect Game. Both where hard to pull off.

Then the other day I was playing the Cubs in interleague play. Swung and missed but it was a dropped third strike. The catcher goes to throw me out and sails it over the first base mans head and I end up on third.

Haha nice.


I've had both in 2010, but not 2011. Granted, I haven't been able to play much until now. I've come really close recently, so hopefully soon. Same with the Cycle, CarGo will get one here shortly I'm sure.

I have come close to the cycle.

[Frenchy180]

Jimenez: 9.0 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 9th K... There was also one error.

[Southstander]

Second Perfect Game. Beckett had 10 K against the Tribe.

Second Perfect Game. Beckett had 10 K against the Tribe.

Nice! I want so badly to hear the commentary after a Perfect Game, or a No Hitter... I'll have to earn it though

[Frenchy180]

Finally made it into July... If I can keep tearing up opposing pitchers I don't see my 10 game winning streak ending within the next three games (Royals are bad) Though I think after the all star break I'm going to up the hitting difficulty.

[Broncoholic3233]

Single away from Cycle in RTTS.

Had the HR, Triple and Double down by the 5th.

Then Sac Fly and Fly out

:brick:

Are you fast enough to have bunted for a single?

[Broncoholic3233]

Are you fast enough to have bunted for a single?

Nah, not yet. I'm a big 3rd basemen. Pretty quick but not that quick yet.
