Anyone play the All-Star Game? I tried it once several years ago but seem to recall the CPU treated like an ordinary game -- few or no subs, SPs going multiple innings.
I simmed it last night and saw SPs went 2 innings and every other pitcher 1 inning (Sonny Gray was even pulled after 0 IP because he gave up two homers). Each team subbed in 6-7 batters. Rosters were expanded to 32 players, every team was represented and players who deserved to be there were there. Only flaw I saw was catchers played the entire game.
Still, I won't be playing it because I can't get past the generic uniforms. Hoping next gen they'll be able to have players wear their team unis, which would be awesome.
The All-Star Game was one of my favorite events growing up as a kid. Sure it's just an exhibition, but back then, before cable TV, a myriad of highlight shows, every game available for viewing and the Internet, it was a rare treat to see some players on obscure teams that rarely were on national TV.
