Re: MLB 11 The Show: "The Little Things" Thread

The Yankees have that little whistle ditty after a strikeout. I had to add this myself last year

Not sure if this is the place but..you can join the demo games that play after inactivity. Now pressing select will let you join the demo game in progress.

I was playing at Citi Field in the rain and heard thunder in the background.

[quote=McCannFann;2042185557]Haha, yeah, that's what I was originally talking about. I thought this thread was named for the Dave Campbell quote in the game. But as someone else so kindly pointed out already, it's apparently the other way around.

McCannFann, you have to understand it was a big deal to a lot of us here at OS the first year they said it. We posted tons of "little things" and it was great to see they gave OS a shout out. Most people here know that the "its the little things" thread started here.

I'm surebobeureally27 was just shocked someone here didn't know that. But hey, we've all been new and didn't know things about the place at first. Welcome to the boards.

I know I for one can't wait till tomorrow so I can start to hunt some little things myself.

Yeah, I was just pointing it out. It's like SCEA was being given credit for something that isn't theirs.

This, and the fact that the field is actually fixed afterwards, with fresh chalk and all.

Actually fresh chalk would be inaccurate, if that's true. They don't add fresh chalk, in fact by the end of a game the chalk is typically completely gone around the batter's box and near first/third base.

End of inning/homerun replays are very well done too... the jumbotrons actually show the batter at the time. It used to show the next batter due up.

I really like the Topps Player of the Game freeze frame they do at the end of the game too.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I noticed it in the demo after the grounds crew came out. Having new chalk is odd after dragging the field.

Have a look at the default AAA 2B for Tampa

Pressing down on the d-pad gets the umpire to grant you time.

Playing batting practice last night I saw something I have never seen before. I swung so early at a curveball that I was offbalance and the batter threw the bat. Then he was looking like what just happened at himself lol.

Deep fly out to center feild. Beltran made the catch on the warning track and then braced himself to hit the wall. Very nice!!!

Wasn't so cool in '10 though

Reyes led off with a triple for me and the Marlons attempted the hidden ball trick at third

Re: MLB 11 The Show: "The Little Things" Thread

Played at midnight last night as the Phils. I had Halladay pitching. He threw a cutter that was a strike, but the ump called it a ball. One of the announcers said something to the extent of 'you aren't gonna get that call if you are on the cover for the wrong game.' so cool

Re: MLB 11 The Show: "The Little Things" Thread

Don't know if this was in previous versions...

Just played a game as the Braves vs DBacks, Freddie Freeman (rookie 1B for Braves) came up to bat for the first time and they showed his AAA numbers from last season.
