Whats the bug?

Fielders choice is scored on infield singles with close plays, particularly plays with the pitcher covering first. This is still occurring after the second title update.

Varies since it's very situational.

Whats the bug?
Hard to explain, but basically the information on a injured player is incorrect on the DL screen.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)
Franchise, roster management.

I have Lincecum on the DL for 6months+. When I go to the DL screen, he is shown on the 60 Day DL, but when I click on him, he is shown on the 15 day DL...when I click "Move to 60 Day DL" nothing happens.

How often can the bug be reproduced?
Not sure.

Do you have video or pictures?

No

I'm not even sure it matters, but I thought I'd mention it.

One thing I have noticed is that no matter how many guys I have on the DL, I am unable to add players to fill in the spots. I can promote players from AAA and such, but at one point I had 6 guys (5 pitchers) on the 60 Day DL, and 4 guys on 15 day (1 pitcher)...I was starting to get thin in the pitching department. I went to the FA list to add a couple guys, but it told me that I had to release players in order to add players which kind of defeats the purpose...is this normal? I thought that I might be able to add guys and then have to release guys when the injured players returned?

Confirming this, unfortunately. FWIW, it doesn't show up in the at-bats on the game log, only in the end-of-inning summary. And of course, in the box score and player's stats.

Whats the bug?

Top of 6th inning I go to the pen and bring Kenley Jansen (Dodgers) in to pitch. He throws his first warm-up pitch (fastball) and Barajas stands up and points to the first base umpire who signals "strike" - and the commentators say something like "he went around for strike one." I was able to pitch the remainder of my warm-up like usual and the first batter I faced had a fresh count. Not a big one, but weird all the same.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

Franchise

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

Hnly seen it once so far and I've played about 25 games, so not all that many.

How often can the bug be reproduced?

It can't, as far as I can tell.

Do you have video or pictures?

Nope.

Whats the bug? When I open the defensive positioning screen, and like the preset defense, I leave the screen without making any changes. The problem is, when the preset defense is anything different from the norm (if the outfielders are playing deep) and I am happy with this preset alignment, I leave the screen, and I get a message saying "are you sure you want to cancel the changes" or something like that. It wants me to save the changes even though I didnt make any. Its annoying cuz I check this screen for every batter.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....) Franchise

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it? Every time I check the defensive positioning; if they are preset to do something different than normal everything.

How often can the bug be reproduced? Every time.

Do you have video or pictures? No

Whats the bug?
Stuck in movie-editor mode. I went in after a game to make a movie of one of my replays. Something weird happened and now I'm stuck in the mode. All the controls still work, but I can't bring up the select menu and I can't exit with start. There is a MLB The Show logo in the bottom right along with a large pause icon when I have it on pause with the triangle button. Literally all the buttons except select and start work. Had to completely shut off the PS3 to exit.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in?
Road to the Show

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?
Not sure, this was a first. It was the second time I had gone into my player's replays. On the menu the stars next to certain plays had disappeared this second time. Not sure what that would mean.

How often can the bug be reproduced?
Unknown.

Do you have video or pictures?
No. Stuck in this one replay without being able to exit.
