I was switching & pitching with both teams - it was Andrus.

If 2K is going to to subject me with yellow flashes, then they can get some yellow man.

I just found a big bug. I haven't looked through the entire thread so someone might have already said it.

Anyway. First inning as the Rangers. They get two quick outs. Hamilton hits a homerun over the right field wall then Cruz follows that with a triple. Adrian Beltre up. He hits one deep into centerfield. I see the fans 6 rows back stand up. Andres Torres goes through the wall and catches it but it counts as a homerun and an out. So I'm up 3-0 going into the bottom of the first having only got out twice.

Anyone who thinks the pitching is still to accurate, try pitching with Barry Zito...wow....I'm all over the place with him and did walk one guy so far.

I also thought it was nice how it told me that Torrealba is a bad matchup vs. Zito, so that was a confidence booster

I assume the Giants are the home team so I have to ask,are there still Pepsi ads plastered all over the place?

Is the bay improved at all? Anyone hit one out there? Is the splash hits sign functional?

I just noticed you can turn switch to Classic controls for hitting and pitching (buttons) if you go to the Controller Setup in the menu (pause, then flick the right stick to bring it up).

Two questions (one that may speak to goh's question)
- Are there simply limited replays on HRs in this release? I hit one that clearly went into the bay and was expecting a replay to say how it looked landing in the water and got nothing.
- Anyone else feeling like the ball lands like a bocce ball on a sheet of leather? I get maybe one bounce and then a straight roll no matter what.

Regardless, I am constantly in amazement as I play this demo over and over. Everything I've ever said I wished would be in this game is in this demo. I keep asking, what am I missing, there's gotta be something wrong?

I just had Sandoval catch a pop up with his bare hands

It would be nice to have that option online.
Also there should be a penalty for those constantly rage quit out of games.
