The New York Post recently sat down with the cover athlete for MLB 11 The Show Joe Mauer, as they discuss some of the features in the game. Also in the article, they have posted some hands-on impressions.

Quote:


	"To put into persepective how realistic The Show is, some Major League pitchers use the game as a scouting tool to look at lineups of opposing teams they will be facing. "A lot of out pitchers, they like to get a visual of the next team that we play and they set the lineup the way they think it's going to be and just go and face them (in the game)," Mauer said."

Its awesome to see the pro's playing this game and shows just how accurate the game can be.

I was just about to come post this... Van Pelt said he's never played The Show, and Mauer said he'd see about getting him a ps3.

That just goes to show how good MLB the show really is that guys would use it to scout other teams. I wonder if they use Knight and Co. rosters,lol.
