Perhaps coincidence, but in my second game post-patch, Victor Martinez of all people tried to swipe second on me. Just the second SB attempt I've seen in somewhere around 50 games (had the SB sliders maxed out pretty much from the start).

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Im pretty sure the steals we are seeing is the CPU hitting and running.. In that case has anyone played with hit and run slider maxed?? Ill try some in the morningComment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Did some slider tweaks and played my first post patch game. Besides the improvements others have mentioned I saw two things that I've never seen before 40 games into my franchise (yes I play them all).
#1 A steal! Ok I've seen about 2 in 40 games but this one caught me totally off guard. Maybe dumb luck, but one game, one steal (steal 2nd slider maxed btw).
#2. A curtain call! I've never seen the cut scene where the player comes out of the dugout to tip his cap. Again maybe dumb luck but that's a first for me.
Loving the patch! Especially the strike zone now.PSN: JISTIC_OS

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
balls outside or even touching the strikezones are no longer called strikes. (however depending on how much of the ball touches the perimeter of the strikezone, some times strikes will be called) But this has now been more toned down
Totally agree. Took me about an inning to notice no more "fake" outside strikes. They definitely tweaked things...Comment

Make sure to highlight which runner you want to advance.People are for reviews if it backs their argument, and against them when they don't.“I believe the game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest – If you can’t take it, you shouldn’t play!” Jack Lambert“Quarterbacks should wear dresses.” Jack LambertComment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
This is crazy!!!!! Why is everyone so sure that this "PATCH" has fixed anything? All you people are doing is trying to convince yourselves that this game is even decent..........News Flash......IT BLOWS!!!!! The faces suck,it has crappy stuttering replays, it has stupid looking lineup introductions where you only always see the number 3 batter on deck, the framerate wasnt fixed, online play is simply Horrendous, It looks cartoonish...Its a joke. Just buy a PS3 and play the show till 2012 when the licensing runs out.MLB The Show kicks this game in the nuts so BAD!!!!!Comment

Re: 2K8 Patch Available: Official Post Patch Impressions
Are we sure that steals weren't addressed in this patch? I've now played 3 post patch games and have had 2 steal attempts against me. I think I've seen 2 in about 40 before that.PSN: JISTIC_OS
