I have noticed in the demo that on a throw to first base the first baseman lunges for everything. Even if the play is not close. Does this happen in the retail version?

Re: MLB 2k9 Questions Thread ...
in play now mode is there an option to choose different starting pitchers and edit the lineups before you play like in 2k7.
in 2k8, the game automatically gave you your starting pitcher and you could not choose your 2nd string pitcher unless you change it in the pitching rotation depth chart beforehand.Comment

in play now mode:
you can change your line ups and pitchers and defensive positions and weather and time of day and stadium
but you cant edit anything for the cpu
so you will always play vs the other teams ace
unless you do what somebody suggested which is create 4 diff roster files for play now and in each just change the pitching rotations around and use the roster named starter #2 or 3 or 4
sucks but that is what we have to deal withComment

- Is there a franchise news/headline tracker like 2K's MLB.COM where I can read things about my franchise and also the MLB on a day to day basis with pictures as well?
- I've seen pics of a Tony Gwyn statue outside of Petco Park in San Diego, is there something like this shown for each team outside the stadium prior to a franchise game.?
- How does the CPU handle the trading of star players?
- How does the CPU handle free agent signings?
- Is there a GM aspect of the franchise mode where I can change ticket prices, transportation, overall budget, and is there any owner goals that I have to meet?
- Do players have personality traits that will effect either team chemistry or free agent signings?

Re: MLB 2k9 Questions Thread ...
Couple Questions:
1. Can you use classic swing and classic pitch controls. For ex, hitting just pressing a button and holding the direction you want the ball to go? For pitching some kind of regular meter or any way you don't have to move around the analog to throw certain pitches? (like 2k7)
2. Can you give us a list of what you can edit, I know you stated accessories but something like, cleats, batting gloves, really worried about the gray cleats on the rays. I hope all the teams are not set to a team color and there fore we can't change them. Thanks for the insight.
2) Full control to edit equipment as if the player was brand new. So if you wanted to go into the roster while in a franchise and edit every players shoes you could.If you can read this, you don't need glasses.Comment

Re: MLB 2k9 Questions Thread ...
I just realized I mistakenly asked this question in the impressions thread when that thread is for impressions only.
Anyway, regarding cursor hitting. Will we somehow influence where we want to place the ball on the field? I.E., (right handed hitter) to pull, swing early, or to go with the pitch, swing late. Flyballs or groundballs?
L - Pull
L and D - Groundball pull
L and U - Flyball pull
U - Flyball
D - Groundball
R - Opposite field
R and D - Groundball opposite way
R and U - Flyball opposite way
Really helps with situational hitting. i.e. Reyes gets on, steals second, then have Castillo try and hit a grounder to the right side of the infield to advance Reyes to third.If you can read this, you don't need glasses.Comment
