ask me about poor baserunning

E: I dont think I "get" advancing runners. Early in our game against Paperback, i knocked a ball out to left to juice the bases, and the guy on 3rd had an easy break to home for a run. I hit X to send him home, and all that happened was the guy on first tried to run to second while everyone else stayed put and that was the 3rd out :iiam:

A's beat the Twins 3-2 in the 10th inning. Josh Reddick hit one out in the first and then Sonny Gray gave up back to back homers on high changeups because I'm so bad at timing the pitching release. Billy Butler with the winning RBI.

And yeah that must've sucked Dubs, I'm scared to think what might have happened if I wasn't gifted some goofy stuff.

To advance individual runners you have to point the left analog at the one you want to move, your controller will rumble and their icon will be highlighted to show control.

Good game Dubious. Not sure where I got all that power from. I guess with a slow pitcher I either whiff horribly or sit on a pitch. Scared me at the end and I was wondering why I couldn't throw to first.

Oh my loving God most frustrating game ever. Braves fall to 0-2. I mashed the poo poo out of the ball only to be rewarded for 4 hits and a run. I leave a meatball over the plate on a two strike count and Chris Davis murders it, Braves lose 3-1.

At least AJ homered.

Alex Wood, 8 complete innings, one walk, one hit allowed in the top of the ninth. Braves win 8-0.

He also had eighteen K's.

That was wild.

What happened on the inside the Parker? I just saw your guy freeze with the ball in CF so I went for it blind. I didn't see what happened after.

Also I have to cut Grilli because he has decayed from a 79 to 69 (lol) in three games.

Braves move to 4-2 with wins over the Red Sox, Twins, and Athletics. The Oakland game was amazing. Came down to me using like 6 pitches in two innings to play matchups in order to fend off a late rally.

twins are 1-4 and probably earned the most HR served stat against the Padres alone

Took me two games to play the Red Sox. 1st one hard froze in the 4th inning. No idea why. I stuck out looking and the camera just froze. I saw the Sox walk off the field and it never made the transition to the next inning.

2nd game went fine.
