What makes you most frustrated during a game (select one)
While hitting, pitcher messes up and a pitch intended for a corner goes right down the middle, but I'm late adjusting and hit a harmless grounder or fly ball 33%  33%  [ 4 ]
While pitching, I've got 2 strikes and place my next pitch perfectly in a corner, but the computer still manages to knock it out of the park 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
I'm playing a really tight, close game and when I pull ahead by 1, Jack Perluzzi jinxes me by saying "and that's the shot to put it away!" (Or something like that) 17%  17%  [ 2 ]
I'm trying to come back in a game and after I hit into a double play, that little secretary lady pops out and asks "what are you doing!" 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
I let a pitch go that is barely in the strike zone, only to hear "he laid that pitch right in there!" 25%  25%  [ 3 ]
Facing a pitcher in purple condition with a level 1 change up and "slow starter" attribute, I look for the change up, I get the change up, and promptly pop out to the catcher 8%  8%  [ 1 ]
It's a tie game with runners at 1st and 3rd and 2 out, when the computer has my man on first try to steal 2nd even though I have the setting on "rarely steal." He is promptly thrown out to end the inning 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
My runner on third is erased when there's a pitch in the dirt that the catcher picks up immediately and catches me since I didn't think to redirect my runner back to the base 8%  8%  [ 1 ]
My pitcher throws a ball in the dirt and I can't find it because it's lying in front of the umpire 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Something (explain it in a reply post) 8%  8%  [ 1 ]

Still loving the game play even after a million years and a gazillion games, but some recurring events are really frustrating so I decided to list them and I wondered which of these annoy you

when having the AI field and they make annoying mental mistakes. ie: runner on 1st, slow ground ball to 3rd and he charges. tries to throw out the lead runner - rather than take the easy out - even tho the base runner already slid into the bag

or not allowing a line drive to fall short in front of the middle infielders to turn an easy double play
