Melvin Mora Home Run

[Justo]

the Rangers are way overrated in this game, 1st batter of the game i have to make a diving stop to get the out, 2nd batter he gets a homerun, 3rd batter he gets a homerun, 4th batter he gets a double

Hated playing Baltimore in my chise cause they are so good defensively up the middle with Roberts and Izturis. They seem to never let anything through.

that's is a really shitty screenshot... i need to get an HDTV

[Justo]

they seriously need to change pitcher stamina in this game... all my starters are exhausted so i start my long reliever and he can only go 4 innings so i go into my bullpen and all my relievers are exhausted and cant pitch for shit. it doesnt help that i only have 1 LR, 3 MR, 2 SU & 1 CL
