Whew.
For a minute I thought someone was going to say a black hole suddenly emerged and sucked the game into it.

Black holes aren't fun.

Sure, because

The only bad thing
is you don’t know where the exit is sometimes. I hope it is the World Series in this case however.

As the Rockies game onto the field, Yorvit was nowhere to be found.
Apparently, he was found knocked unconscious with a handle bar mustache spray painted on.
In unrelated news, Sal Fasano is now the starting catcher.

The outfield is amazing.
ERIC BYRNES.
"A great catch is like watching girls go by; the last one you see is always the prettiest." ~Bob Gibson
JFK
And Byrnes...
….having led off with a bunt, slides face first into first base, where he is out.
Sal, following down the line, decides to leave his mark, and :-C is tattooed squarely on to Byrnes’ right cheek, along with a couple cleat marks.
But we’re still not playing the Diamondbacks, according to Byrnes, we’ve just gotten lucky.

Good call...
I’ll substitute Reynolds in at first for Clark

Actual baseball...
Corpas’ line against Detroit

0-Groundouts, 4-Flyouts, 1 Throwing Error,
Doesn’t look like DET had their ‘A’ squad out there though.

Si.
According to the box score.

I see.
Oh well. The flyouts are a bit discouraging, though. I like the strikeouts, though, especially the fact that there’s more of them than there are walks.

Does this game have ST-like properties (frequent pitching changes, subs) or is it regular season CYOA?

Whichever you choose.
"If we never try, we shall never succeed." - Abraham Lincoln

Based on the starting lineups, I would say ST.

It also has GameDay-like properties
That is, no updates at all for 30 minutes, and then everyone K’s on three pitches or W’s on four pitches. Except for Brewers, who just keep hitting home runs.

That's nothing...
In Triple Play ’98 (the PC version), you could put in some code that allowed you to hit extra long homeruns.
I recall hitting a 1,350-foot blast with Quinton McCracken.
