BIG inning!!

[Bobble]

So, there are probably bigger innings out there in the OOTP world but this was about the biggest I can remember in my league. A twelve run 4th en route to a 24 to 2 thumping:

 Saturday, September 26th, 1914 
                     1 2 3 4  5 6 7 8 9  R  H  E 
Pastime Club         2 0 1 12 6 0 1 2 0  24 25 1 
Sunday Sandlot Club  2 0 0 0  0 0 0 0 0  2  7  1

Twelve runs on four walks, ten hits, a grand slam, and a 2-run dinger all with no outs. Other than that, the pitching was fine.

In my online league, I got beat 23-10 and was the victim of an 18-run inning:



I do not have Game Logs enabled, so it's hard for me to see exactly what happened. It appears that the big inning involved 3 2Bs and 1 HR; but in a game where the Tigers got only 16 hits, I think the 16 free passes my A's gave them may have played a role in the big inning.

I liked how you had a Grand Slam in that inning, and that was not the end of the scoring. It just goes to show you that home runs are not rally-killers, as Cecil Cooper said the other day.

FIRE JOE MORGAN

Completely Off Topic:

"FIRE JOE MORGAN"

I'd rather fire the play-by-play guy who works with him. Worst baseball broadcaster I've ever heard. Joe is at least entertaining.
