That is actually a really cool idea that I would totally use in blowout games, or with super flashy players. The OF version of this would probably be when an OF will barehand a one-hop basehit in order to throw the ball off quicker.

Another "showtime" option for in IF could be a gloveflip, like the great play that Alexei Ramirez made his rookie year as a 2B....

Also, love that Brandon Phillips took that "Showtime" catch phrase from Hawk Harrelson when a Sox player makes a slick play.

Madden? I think you mean 2K baseball, which used to have a "showboat" button that made outfielders spin around and catch a ball behind their back, or through their legs. That was a fun option, but not very realistic since OFers NEVER do that. But a barehanded or gloveflip button would be fun AND realistic as long as there is a heavy risk/reward that will deter users from doing it more than a few times a week.

DO NOT add a showtime button. That's step 1 towards going into arcade mode. Don't ruin what you have.

No way, the dead giveaway is the hair - If it was PS3 it would be blocky but you can see the individual hairs...
