APBA GO Forums

So I just set up a game and experimented with this a bit.
As has always been the case, the reliever appears to need two things to get the first-batter upgrade:

He must have a reliever * asterisk on his pitching grade (pitchers rated as starters-only don’t get upgraded). He must face a batter hitting from the same side (ie. lefty-on-lefty or righty-on-righty).
But you probably already knew that.

Also… the upgrade does NOT appear to happen if the half-inning hasn’t begun yet. I tried making a change between innings. All the criteria was there, but the reliever did not get an upgrade for the first batter of the inning.

But as long as the half-inning has started (ie. a batter has reached base or made an out), the upgrade now appears to work EVEN IF there are none out. I believe that may be different from in the past. The GO Support people may have recently tweaked the game engine on that.

@RandySteinman I think it was around December 2 last year

sorry meant to ad that i like it. kind of early warning pitcher getting gassed.

I played the 1959 season and the White Sox played the Braves. I created a world series 1959 collection.
At the end of the game I added the game to the 1959 collection. All my world series record were kept.
Sox won in 7 games.

It seems the players are there but sometimes the initial lineup shows a substitute player. I found that the as played guy is there on the team and I just put him
In the lineup.

@Bigasslover Potentially. We have some lined up

Thanks for letting me know,

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Me too ;)

“an expert in a particular subject or field who is frequently called on to give opinions about it to the public.”

Apparently.

@pwdparis-yahoo-com I’ll let people know this is still coming up and see where we get to.

Thank you,
Jeremy

This might be helpful for draft leagues.

Hi!,

in most cases the information used to determine game results will be made available to players. Also, the back and forth flow between offense and defense will also take place prior to results being made available. This should appeal to managers familiar with the master game (while making the game playable to those managers who are still learning)

Hope this helps,

I’ve experienced two no-hit shutouts but in both cases, the pitcher gave up 2 walks. In one of them, the pitcher went perfect for 8 innings and gave up 2 walks in the 9th. You know the old rule: don’t talk about it while it’s happening or you’ll jinx it. Well I realized what was happening in the bottom of the 9th…apparently, thinking about it will also jinx it.

Is this the Twilight Zone? I read his question four times and still can’t figure out what he asked that was not answered. Kayleigh, I think you did a great job of answering his question and I’d like to offer you an apology on behalf of Sludge. I’m not sure what quagmire he was dredged up from, but his name is certainly fitting.
Also, thank you Jeremy for your decisive reaction. I can only speak for myself, but we don’t need his kind of muck oozing around here clogging up the real reason we are here…to have fun and enjoy this great game.

Sound and notification is definitely a nice surprise!
