Ah yes, that's been an issue as well since I started playing in 06. The CPU rarely shifts its defense or plays strategically like that. Good catch.

Fairly sure that's because somebody is actually playing as the hitters, and he's a bit trigger happy. When pitching to AI, they take balls all the time (and take close strikes pretty often too). At least that's what I've seen in the demo.

Regarding the announce not calling the run scored.


I dunno. Watch the vid again. The transitions (see the pitcher fade out/then throw) are not the normal in game transitions and as soon as the announcer calls the ground out there is a transition quickly to behind the mound. So, I don't know if it's missing, or not or it got skipped.

We'll find out in a few days

DD, there weren't users playing in these videos. It was CPU vs CPU.

This is fact. I see them wearing leather jackets, and other heavy jackets on 65-70 degree nights in California. Hell, we dont wear jackets when it is 45-50 degrees on the East Coast.

I agree Jim.

The video is edited, and cut to fit most of the gameplay in, without making it too large with all the presentation values.

Those complaining about it, I thought it was painfully obvious.

A few days? Are you getting it in 3 days? Sweet!
