Two posts. Right above yours.

For the folks wondering why this thread is 50 pages long....this is why.

Wood got the save and was credited for it, and Lieber should get credit for the innings he pitched. It's easy enough to check, just go into the statistics screen and look for those 2 innings he pitched - they should be there.

One more thing....in the boxscore, did you notice how even though the innings for each pitcher didn't add up to 9, but the team totals below the individuals showed 9? They're being tracked, the box just isn't updating.

I found a major gameplay glitch that has already affected me drastically.

I'm playing my franchise as the Twins, and I've noticed that, not only at the metrodome (though ESPECIALLY at the dome), when balls hit off the walls in the outfield and are bouncing around, the outfielders can't grab them until they stop bouncing. I'm playing a game right now in Detroit, and Sheffield hit one off the right-center field wall. The ball bounced around, and even though I had Cuddyer basically running through the ball, he didn't pick it up, allowing Sheffield to come all the way around for an inside-the-park homerun.

You can see how this could be very important in a full season. That's a lot of runs scored that shouldn't be. Anyone know how to help?

Just had the random restart glitch. I'm up 12-3 on Rockies. Berkman grounds out at first to end the 8th, and bam the game shuts off and goes to the PS3 start-up menu. Luckily I had done an in-game save hours before, so I got to go back to the 7th inning.

Man this glitch really blows. Has anyone found out the reason this happens?

Hi Guys,
I didn't see this but I admit I didn't read EVERY post. Glitch, while warming up 2 relievers while on defense, playing with the Reds and Javier Valentine in the game currently catching. There were two #17 Javier Valentine's also warming the relievers Is this the 1st post about a TRIPLE player appearance?

Probably been stated before, but...

There seems to be a slight problem with in-game saves, in the sense that when you resume a game, all your pitcher-batter matchup is lost, and little things are lost, like for example when they show the K signs for the number of strikeouts, let's say you had 5 before save and one after, the commentator will say 'sixth strikeout' but there will only be one K sign hanging.

So I was playing the Braves v. Mets as the Braves in Manage mode and I subbed in the slightly injured Chipper to hit for the pitchers position. I then went to the bullpen to warm up a pitcher for the next inning. When I started warming up my pitcher and tried to exit the screen, a message pops up and says "You must replace P Wagner. Wagner? The closer on the Mets? I AM THE BRAVES! Needless to say, I could not replace Wagner, and I could not get off the screen because it wanted me to replace Wagner. I had to restart the system. Booooo! Only real complaint so far with the game.

I'm sure it's been mentioned but opponent hits a homer and next thing you know there's phantom baserunner on 1st. Don't know how he got there, maybe he snuck over to 1st from the dugout when I wasn't looking. Kinda pissed me off, it was in the 9th and he ended up being the tying run and I lost. One thing with these bugs, they always seem to happen to me at the worst times. Almost makes me think that there is some AI catch up logic that won't let you win certain games because I did have a 4 game winning streak up to then.

This has probably been mentioned before but I was just playing Mets vs Giants at San Fransisco. I picked the NY jersey for the Giants and the black alternate for Mets. I start the game and now both teams are wearing the black Mets jerseys. The only difference in the jerseys is that Giants' jerseys have no name in the back.

I've had the same thing happen with the Braves. I was playing the Cardinals and we both had the red Braves jerseys on.
