Crowd not reacting to foul balls?

[JTommy67]

I noticed in my first few games at Wrigley that the crowd was not reacting at all to pop fouls. They just sit there as the ball disappears into the stands. Anybody else seen this?

I don't think I've seen the camera follow but one or two foul balls through 5 games.

Lol! I've noticed this a couple times... I was waiting on the paramedics to show up and revive the poor fan that let that ball hit them in the head.

Re: Crowd not reacting to foul balls?

I actually use a camera in my games that allows me to view all the foul balls as they happen in real time. As a MoM player I use the "Dugout" camera and this is the only camera I have ever seen in the game that does not pan away to a different camera view while the ball is still in play. The "Dugout" camera stays active for the entire play. Have I seen a fan go for a foul ball? Not yet. But I have only played 4 MoM games to date, and I am also still only playing Spring Training games. Will things be different next week when I get to the Big League stadiums? Perhaps (I hope so). But I am not holding my breath.

I paid closer attention to the crowds on four balls in my MoM game last night. I did not actually see any fans catch a foul ball, possibly because there is a lot of distance between where I am in the dugout and where the ball ultimately lands. But the fans are definitely putting their hands up in an attempt to catch it.
