Problem with Pitcher Sub

[rynox]

It happens all the time, I want to sub a pitcher and accidentally sub some starter that isn't warmed up. Is there anyway to go back and resub, or am I stuck with that pitcher for the batter?

Don't laugh, I'm a noob. :roll:

Just manually do it ... Press Pause -> Roster Options -> Pitcher Options -> Pitcher Substitution -> Sub the pitcher warming up.

Hope this helps.

It won't let me. Once I sub, the Substitute Pitcher option is greyed out until the next batter.

I think he has to at least throw a pitch. Throw one outside the zone and than resub.

it's actually a rule that he has to go through one batter, either getting the out or getting him on base.

if it's a bad hitter, i simply just pitch around the zone and hopefully i can get the out, and if it's someone good, i'd just walk him.

there isn't a way around it, unless you go back to the manage menu you might be able to sub the guy in and go back to the game, i'm not sure.

a lot of things are messed up on the manage menu.

I've had the same thing happen a few times, you just have to be careful...the rule is that the pitcher has to face a batter, so throwing one pitch won't do it (unless he hits it).
