One thing I dislike is that you can't change the camera views or options during the TWIBs.

Re: Anyone get the leaping Alou challange?

sweet! I took Hooligan's suggestion into mind and waited approximately one mississippi after the crack of the bat, started running, and I got nervous and ended up about 3 or 4 feet from the cursor, but I still made the catch! That was pretty funny. I was just glad to have it over with. I've only had minimal success on the Thome Time one. On those ones where you actually have to play quite a bit of the game, I set it to HOF simply cause I'm accustomed to the 3D cursor. It's really hard, cause unless you get the right prople in the BP up, and hit a homer with Thome, you're gonna have to face Urbina. That may be something to scoff at on Veteran or even All-Star, but on HOF that fastball is just a little too fast for me. Then they've got Looper ready to go after Urbina. It's not easy, and shows you even further why the Marlins won last year.

Anyways, I couldn't help but look at today's Giants/Astros game and think "man....what if Barry had gotten to come to bat one more time? What if he hit that second home run and tied with Willie Mays all on Opening Day? WHAT IF?!". I, personally, hope that this will be one of the TWIBS (or something close to it) next year.

I spun the camera making Alou face homeplate made the leap and got the ball took me 2 tries.
So far I'm all the way to to the trying to make some guy from the Padres hit a triple AFTER getting 2 guys on base first.

I got it in about 6 trys, simply because i didn't know you had to just press the R trigger ( not hold it ) right before you reached the wall....i hesisated about 2 seconds while the ball was in the air before i started running towards the foul line. Juts Joshin pissed me off the longest...but i go that finally...i'm now on the 3rd pier.
