Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary
Baseball would never classic again. Haven't you seen the news with Manfred doing all of these pace of play changes? I'd like to record that program though and see what they say about it. But in my mind, baseball will only future.
Speaking of which, anyone happen to catch the World Baseball Classic? When I was watching it, yes the first thing that came into my mind is: "Let me try and distinguish the separation of dialogue and conversation between Vasgersian in real life and The Show."
Can he sound perfect in a video game? Of course not. They have to account for every situation and stitch the emotions together with it, plus names and statistics. However, in my uber long post in this thread, I suggested that any games we can catch PBP with him, that SDS captures his individual pieces of dialogue, arrange them for appropriate moments, play them back for Matt, then ask him to re-record that line as necessary. I've never had trouble not mimicking myself before, no matter the emotion I needed to convey.
At least this takes away the script, but Matt doesn't always sound like he's reading off a script either. does help with the organic feel though, and perhaps finds many different ways he can describe a ground ball that's hit, etc.
(also, according to the Machado home run in Marlins Park last night, Matt refers to the LF concourse behind the stands is known as "big boy territory"... let's make sure that name is tagged in)

Everyone is going to have bias towards their home team announcers. Doesn't make them better than everyone.

The single best announcer is/was Vin Scully, I could listen to him call anything.Comment

Originally posted by Jon ArbuckleTo be fair, Mets announcers really are top notch and I say that as a Giants fan. You end up listening to a lot of crews when you have MLB.tv (including radio guys) and the Mets guys are some of the best.
And while I live in the Philly market, I can't imagine anyone here being biased towards Tom McCarthy. Thank god they play the radio feed in the CBP bathrooms. lolComment

Don't know if this has already been brought up or not, but, my only gripe with commentary is for some of the players is the announcers don't even call them by their actual names. It's "number 15 comes up to bat", or "the right fielder makes the catch". That's boring.Comment

What's nice is that even if their name isn't in the database, you can edit the player and match something "close" if you'd like, not that it's the same thing. For example, I created Barry Bonds in MLB Power Pros, but because Bonds wasn't in the audio database, I put "Bonser" in place (Boof Bonser was a pitcher for the Twins). It was hilarious whenever the announcer would exclaim his name "BONSER... MAKES THE CATCH!" Even my roommate at the time has the last name Saraka, and we used Zumaya... close enough I guess?
Thankfully mine is common enough to always make these games.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

I'll try to post pics of the Nats and others.
Thank you so much jimmy!Last edited by The Kid 24; 03-13-2017, 04:54 PM.Milwaukee Brewers | Green Bay Packers | North Carolina Tar Heels | Wisconsin BadgersComment

Originally posted by Jon ArbuckleSmoltz seems to be a fan of his MLB Network partner Vasgersian and at least somewhat familiar with his work in The Show. Just said something along the lines of 'Now I know why they have you doing PBP in The Show' after Vasgersian got animated with his call for a big out in the USA-Japan game.
I got to thinking maybe Smoltz just doesn't do much commentating, but he's done a crap ton the past half-decade so //I don't really know what it was referring to. The Show doesn't have WBC, either.
I guess he's just keying into the fact that Vasgersian showed he loves what he does.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary
Smoltz said it really awkwardly and it was hard to make out and Vasgersian kinda acted like he didn't know how to respond. It was weird. But Smoltz was right. I rarely actually hear Vasgersian call games but I've watched virtually the entire wbc and when the emotion is high Vasgersian excels. Love what I've heard and I wish the Show was able to capture those moments better.
Slightly off topic but my other favorite commentator is the underrated Rich Waltz who did the Tokyo portion of the wbc so I'm sure some of you heard him the last few weeks as well.Comment

Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary
Being overseas we had the MLB Network international broadcasts for the WS games. Which were Vasgersian and Buck Martinez. Those games were so much more enjoyable to watch than Joe Buck and John Smoltz.
Also Vasgersian being a huge A's fan doesn't hurt. Lol

Re: MLB The Show 17 Twitch Stream - Presentation & Commentary
Anyone else get flashbacks of Triple Play 2002 when you hear Harold Reynolds' voice?
Something about hitting home runs in that game felt amazing. So many childhood memories of Harold calling home runs by Bernie Williams, Giambi, etc.Comment
