Wow. Great advice above, guys. Also need help. Live in UK. Love Baseball, Crap at managing it.

Can you help? Managing D-Backs (2005). Spring Training, have played 7 lost 6 (1 win a fluke)!

What basic tactics would i be best advised employing at the start of the first few innings and then later e.g 6th onwards if scores tied, or behind by a few etc (ALL help welcome). Would prefer quite aggressive tactics rather than conservative.

What is the best way to set Batters line up? (High on Base Percentage to lead off or Hitting Average)? What then further down the order?

Also is there a bug in the game? Had the bases loaded on a bout 5 occasions in this time, each time still with 2-3 outs remaining, yet never managed to convert even a single. (Bunts foul out then struck out Bunting). Am I missing a useful tactic here.

Cheers.
