Fred I have a worse story than that. Last year in game 6 in B8. I have a runner on 3b noone out. I'm down 1 run up 3-2 in the series. The runner gets picked off 3b. Pujols comes up next hitter hit's a HR, which if it were a 2 run shot would have ended the series in my favor. In stead I lose in 11 innings and drop game 7. With all that said I think the randomness is good. We see stupid plays all the time in real baseball and plays that make no sence. This game simulates that. It's frustrating, but, I think part of what makes this game fun.
