Keep in mind this is for a one-game series.

our games are dominated by pitchers so, like the american league in 1972 we decided to make a drastic change...  one starter per game no matter how long the series.  the games have had more offense and the fans are happy.  can't say the same for the stupid dh rule...

Its looking like our crew is the only one that allows for using both pitchers.  I'm gonna have to make an adjustment if I do a tourney with the NYC folks.

definitely one starter per game, with both relievers

Hey I like the one-starter game, makes it more challenging for pitching.

I really enjoy playing where you may curve the ball, but it has to be a strike, if a ball is thrown and the batter takes the pitch, the next pitch must be right down the middle(just pressing A)

But what makes it great is that you may throw a ball and they can swing and miss and you get no penalty, so it satisfies the curve lovers, and if you can lay off the bad pitches, you get rewarded with a cock-shot pitch.

the split-finger(drop ball) can be thrown down the middle for a ball at no penalty.

you should penalize the drop ball as well...  otherwise it is a no brainer to throw that pitch with two strikes...  it would let the batter off the hook if he takes a ball there with two strikes.   those are interesting rules though
