that stinks. I had that happen early in life, but then i built my speed up and got 220 soem steals! I often come up a homer shy as well because my catcher version of me is a contact speedster, as you probably guessed.

i had 12 steals for my my life guy in AAA in about 7 games.
he had an E in speed!
i would have gotten more, but my guy hit too many doubles.

I was playing game 7 of the 2009 ALCS against the Yankees and hit for the cycle twice. Granderson with a Triple (fuggin easy) and Polanco with an HR (very difficult).

When you hit 2 cycles in one game, you need to turn up the difficulty mate. Either that or you just lowered it for the play-offs or something along those lines.

It was a high score in the end, I had it on lock on 1, and it was on normal

Haha, if you want more of a challenge, turn up things slowly. Don't do it all at once. Start easy and turn up fielding and play with it for 10 days. Then turn up pitching and play with it for 10 days. Then turn up base-running and hitting. Sometimes you should turn up the areas of strength. What I mean is that if you hit 50 runs a game but give up 49, turn down the hitting a level and turn up the pitching a level. Now you have 30 run games where the computer scores 29 :D.

Carlos Pena, with the American League Champion TAMPA BAY DEVIL RAYS, hit for the cycle last night.

This was the first time this happened to me--I can't take the credit though, because I was in Rookie Mode:)

That said...

It seemed like the computer pushed Pena to third on what would normally, for him, be a double. Have you seen this before?

no, never seen it happen before. I think it is because he has Aggressive Runner.
