Player intros (Opening Day, ASG, World Series)

[OhioCub]

Does anyone think that sometime this gen we might get to see the full player introductions done for these special events? Where they're announced over the PA and we see each player come out of the dugout and line up along the basepaths? I realize we get an abbrieviated version of it now but I'd love to see the whole thing done at some point. Obviously a purely cosmetic thing but I think it adds to the excitement level of these games.

Um.........no.

We didn't even get fly-ins, so expecting this is one hell of a longshot.

or just a NO.

Read people. I think there is a possibility of it happening this gen. Look how far The Show came on the last generation of consoles. We're just barely scratching the surface here.

I would like to see something along the lines of seeing the introduction for a key player and have the rest occur visibly in the background.

How cool would it be to start a playoff game, see Adam Jones introduced, camera cuts to commentators, in the background through the glass you see other guys running out?

I would love to see that, shoot I would be happy with the announcers actually announcing the players as they show who is in the line up or playing the field.

I hate hearing "Now let's take a look at the defense behind him" but they never say like "Brandon Belt at 1st, Brandon Hicks will be starting at 2nd base" I think something as simple as that would make the immersion that much better. It's been one of my pet peeves the past years

They don't need to say every player's name though. In my opinion that would take too long. But highlighting players would be great. Point out who if anyone has won a gold glove, or even who is not a good defender.

Same thing for lineups. Display the lineup and then say "And you see that player X has been ___"
