Zumaya is charged with both runs even though he wasn't responsible for either runner. Sorry if this issue has already been posted.

UMMMMMM if this is true and someone can confirm this then WOW that needs to be patched, thats a huge stat killer that will mess up anyones season stats and also mess up league leaders!!

yeah Will, this game is really eating up a lot of my time right now, I own both the Show and 2K and to my surprise 2k is in my system non stop.


With a patch to iron some things this game will be really golden. As for now I'm really happy with it.

Is the check swing patch out yet? I'm currently not connected to the internet, so I was wondering if anyone knew.

Anyways, I'm having a good time with this game. Just about have my sliders right. I also lowered everyone's arm strength by 8 and the arm strength seem much better now. Next step is to add the top prospects(only the one's that are close), and I'll be ready to jump into my franchise.

Really hope they patch the glitch where the pitcher is covering first and you throw it to him and he attempts to tag the runner right when he gets the ball no matter how far away he is from the foul line. Other than that I haven't run into any other big glitches yet, and hope I don't in the future.

They need to fix the Cubs HUGE numbers and bright red numbers on the road jerseys.

I'll try to be brief:

Playing as the Rangers (home) against the Cardinals. Lost 1-0 on all-star default to a solo shot by Pujols in the 8th. Suspect pitch to put out, but not a horrible HR (I'll try to UL it later to 2K). Had 4 singles and K'd 7x. Struck out 12 Cards who had 6 or 7 hits. Pitch count was in low 100's for both teams. My K% was mid-60's and cpu's was low 70's.

The Good:

*Double plays look and feel pretty nice
*The defensive swing comes in handy sometimes
*The cpu took a walk
*Spray of the ball was pretty decent
*BR speed is pretty good on this level
*Decent cam selections for pitching and batting
*Nice underhand toss throw animation
*Make a mistake pitch and it'll get hit

The Bad:

*Cannon arms
*Throw meter seems useless (though I could care less about it)
*A few throwing animations that make you go wtf
*The camera sitting on the dead foul ball excessively long
*The cut scene for the RP coming in from the pen is almost laughable
*No manual throwing the ball around after an out
*Throwing on the run almost always results in pushing off the wrong foot
*No check swing as of yet

The Ugly:

*No fielding cam options
*No fielding cam options
*No fielding cam options!
---- and what's there on a gapper is brutal.

PS3 owner here who bought both the Show and 2K10.

My impression in 1 sentence: this is the first baseball game in the 2K series (dating back to the Dreamcast days of World Series Baseball 2K2) that, in my opinion, is actually good and playable. Nice job and I am having a great time with it. If 2K can honestly improve this game instead of take a few steps backward next year you can count on me buying their product again.

This has happened to me twice now. I was hoping it was a glitch the first time. I haven't checked my season stats but that's at least how it shows in the box score at the end of the game.
