    Funny you say that because I was going to say that I wish I could take a virtual bat and hit him.

      Like i mean.. WTF you looking at man.

      and it almost seemed as Navarro+Kazmir knew the way he was calling the game and were just trying to paint all game...

      I think it was a conspiracy.
      This is crazy! We are talking about video umps as if they were real umps for our real teams, LOL. Talk about immersion into a video game. This year is going to be great, and just think what next year will be like

          Next time I deal with him, I'm going to take a screencap of him ringing somebody up and try to see if I can either get it where you can see where the ball crossed the line or have a picture-in-picture shot.

            So how are the jersey selections? Same ones as usual or are there some new ones? One I'd like to see (I don't expect it this year) eventually, maybe next year, are the "Half-way to St. Patrick's Day" jerseys.

              whats funny with him is like, sometimes its NOT EVEN CLOSE, and you cant really do anything but say..."wow...wtf."

              specifically the low strikes... most times its clearly a strke, and like he stands there liek a ugly looking blue statue

              im at work getting pissed right now, let me go take a break.

                  Do they all have the same voice, or are they all different?

                    Hey Guys...long time baseball game player, who has been lurking and praying that you guys could never convince me on having to get a new system to play this game. Dam you I say...Dam you.

                    I have been trying to find out info on this quote Jim, but can't. The way I like to play baseball games is having the ability to play any game on the schedule by any team. I don't know if what you are saying here, is that ability. I know in past years, what has prevented me from picking up this title is that you could only play as two different teams.

                    Has this been changed..so in essence you can run from a playing standpoint...ANY TEAM? ANY GAME??? ANY TIME???

                    Appreciate any response. and again...DAM YOU!!!! My wallet feels the same way.

                            That would be appropriate from the Ol' Irishman.

                            I haven't seen him behind the plate yet. I wonder if he calls a better game than that frickin' Woody Keller.

                              You can play any game BUT they have to be played in the order they are in the schedule. I think I'm right....
