Scoreboard not working

[Mikeyo918]

Anyone else notice that stadium scoreboards are blank during a franchise?

Same here. Even Fenway's wall is almost entirely working for the first time.

Not a bug. The games for all the other teams in the league on a given day need to be completed before you start your game for these games to appear on the stadium "Out of town" scoreboard.

Ah ok. So how do I sim the other games before mine?

If you have 30-team control enabled, go to the Calendar game day view and click on each game and there is a variety of ways to play them. You could do the instant sim which completes the game in less than one second. You could sim the game via the Sportscast Manager (keep in mind there is a bug right now with the Sportscast Manager where the panels are shifting down on the screen after the first game is simmed. It does not effect the actual simulation, you just can't see the results of the game after the 5th inning). Anyway I digress. You can also enter into the game as a CPU vs CPU game and allow every inning to be played, or you could fast forward to your inning of choice of fast forward to the end of the game. Note: when fast forwarding, press the "O" button on your controller to immediately fast forward.

Now if you are not playing 30-team control, someone else needs to chime in because I have only ever played 30-team control in MLB The Show ... LOL

Calendar - select today's in-game date - View Today's Games - select any game other than yours - Simulate Game

Re: Scoreboard not working

I believe it all depends on the time of your game as compared to the time of their games. So, if you are playing a late game, you should see updates and results of all games that were played earlier in the day or are being played while you are playing. At least that's how it seems to work in my franchise.

Yes this is correct. If you are playing an early game and none of the other games are scheduled to start 3+ hours after your game begins, their results will not be available unless you go into extra innings since the games have not begun yet. Typically 3 innings of a game equals 1 hour of in-game clock time.
