Swang through a strike with Crawford and he lost grip of the bat and it went flying into the crowd. Really cool.

Re: MLB 15: The Little Things Thread

I grooved a fastball to Nelson Cruz and he gave it a ride, did the bat flip, started his trot to first only to see it end up foul. He bent all the way over at the waist shaking his head before going back to the plate with his tail between his legs and I struck him out on the next pitch. Pretty cool to see the batter think it was gone and be wrong.

Also playing as the Yankees in Fenway and hearing the crowd heckle with a Boston accent is pretty sweet.

Just rip a triple in the gap with bourjos after he was safe, a cut scene showed the third baseman talking to the pitcher, then tried to pull the hidden ball trick on me.

I know it's not new to this year but: hit my first RTTS HR (double A). Stat showed it was my first career shot. But the cool part is coming into the dugout and all your teammates ignore you giving you the cold shoulder for a bit. Then they all mob you with congrats. Pretty cool.

This year they finally added live AL East standings on the Green Monster scoreboard at Fenway in your franchise and season modes. It always used to stay the same no matter what time of year (usually with the Sox in last). Always was something that bothered me. Thank you SCEA San Diego for the fix!

Something missing that was in last year's game: the ability to play day games in postseason mode, you can only play at night now

Cool little fun thing I didn't notice in last years game, is the authentic Pedro Alvarez Homer reaction. Before it seemed generic, this year was legit.

Re: MLB 15: The Little Things Thread

Last night I hit a no doubter to right field which was awesome in itself then the split screen replay shows me hitting the HR and the pitchers reaction was priceless, really good stuff this year.

This used to bother me a ton, simply because I love realism, I am very happy to read this.

I posted this yesterday but I kind of got lost on page 4 of the boards. During the 2nd inning the field momentarily was in the shadow of a cloud. I thought that was a cool little addition to the game.

If you notice on the jumbotrons in certain stadiums, it will show random stats for the player at his first at bat. I was playing my franchise yesterday and the stat said, Leads his team in HR with 8. It only does it for the players first at bat though. Anytime at that, it shows his stat line for the game. Thats dope.

There is a logo in the off-season schedule to mark the start of the Winter Meetings. Pretty cool touch, and I waited to make some off-season trades until that week started, haha.

Re: MLB 15: The Little Things Thread

In my transferred Franchise (which is awesome they did this), Kipnis hit a hard grounder to Alexi Casilla. Casilla went down to a knee to stop it. The ball took a bad hop and hit Casilla in the chest. He picked it up and fired to first for the out. It looked so realistic. The knew going to a knee animation is legit.

Re: MLB 15: The Little Things Thread

I'm playing a game Astros vs. Rays.

Evan Longoria is at the plate and he drives a ball into the left field short porch at Minute Maid, and the ball is ever-so-close to the foul pole. Umpires have a conference and animatedly discuss the play. They then go to replay, which shows that the ball indeed hooked foul. Ump waves off the home run and the at-bat resumes.

AMAZING.

I was playing Franchise last night and ran across the same sort of experience within 6 outs of each other. The first time was Hanley Ramirez hitting a ball to deep short and getting out at first. I was immediately prompted to challenge or ignore. I challenged and won the challenge
The next half inning the exact same thing happened to me, but on the defensive side. The runner was safe, I challenged and lost it!

Definitely a cool addition!
