medric822 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Ok, I was finishing the 2007, and I was the Marlins playing the Phillies. Pavano was pitching for the Phillies. After three innings, he K'd about 5 of my guys. So, I hit him in the head with a curvaball. He went down, and had to be taken out (strained back-9 days). I later went on to win the game, with his replacement pitcher pritty much giving me the needed runs. I was wondering how many others here do the same. Also, The Phillies didn't come close to making the playoffs, so the Injury didn't "Hurt" the team any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRog Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I tend to do that. One time i was down in a 1-0 game in the 7th. I was san fransisco and i was playing ATL. Smoltz was batting and i decided to bean him. i used my own bean not the game one where you hit the Buttons to make it hit the batter. anywho smoltz was clocked in the head with a high inside slider. He fell to the ground instantly and was out for a good 53 days with some type of injury. Lets just say that durham got a hit and bonds (he just finished a treatment with his trainer :wink: :wink: ) hit a homer and i won the game 2 to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdoyle7798 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The only time I hit anyone intentionally is if one of my big guns gets beaned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred13 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The only person I hit intentionally is Manny Ramirez :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwentySeven Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The only time I hit anyone intentionally is if one of my big guns gets beaned. Yeah, I try to play realistically. If you were to aim for a pitcher, in the game, nothing really happens. In real life, thats probably a suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hory Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I always hit Neifi Perez intentionally, anytime, anyplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean O Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 The chance of injuring the player is almost nil, so there is no reason to hit the opposing batter unless you're up by 5 or more runs. In a close game it's stupid to give the opposing team extra baserunners in any situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 i try to bean someone every time they hit a homerun. i've intentionally hit five batters once without getting tossed. but i'm not always successful. i don't know how to hit someone on purpose except by throwing a bad pitch. wasn't there a way to intentionally plunk or walk someone?

drbeep97 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 only once on MVP... cuz they hit my pitcher i've hit players in real life on purpose because they pissed me off... never been ejected On MVP again... a couple of times when i forget to warm some one up in the pen so i can get a warmed up pitcher in instead of a colder one (or leaving the other guy in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I say In a close game it's stupid to give the opposing team extra baserunners in any situation. However I do try to bean someone every time they hit a homerun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee4Life Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 This is a good question medric. I answered "hit him in the head." Shoot, I hit them even if they suck just to keep in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckdodger215 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 if some slap player (i.e. eckstein or the like) cranks one then I bean the next player or wait til they come up to bat again i would hit bonds more, but i usually strike his sorry *** out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 Did you even read the question though? It says: "If the opposing pitcher is too good, do you hit him when he bats?". Keyword, PITCHER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
