Why do the fans go bananas at all times during the playoffs?

I don't like Tampa Bays fan with the stupid cowbell thing they do.

I've always wanted to see them throw the ball back if for the opposing team if they hit a HR

I hit a walk off HR in extra innings once, and the crowd didn't react at all until the ball landed over the fence and the cutscene of the player rounding first started playing. IRL, a walk off shot garners a wild response from the fans as soon as the ball comes off the bat. In this instance, it did not.

I hope and pray that the devs who control crowd reactions and other stuff get this correct for next year.

I want the crowd going nuts when a ball is hit hard off the bat via walkoff or even a double late down the line in a close ballgame.

Even fly balls to the warning track some fans get excited and yell. I want that next step realism from the show in the wonderful game they already make. Would take it next level imho.

have you been to a postseason MLB game? it's pretty crazy. I love it in the game too.

It's ok the way it is, I like it. Besides it seems like after the 3rd inning the crowd would tone down some.

It does happen at Wrigley on occasion. Just a few days ago, I saw the cutscene for the very first time in The Show. The last time I saw the fans throw it back in a video game was All Star Baseball 2004.


Off topic, I really hate it when Cardinal fans throw it back. That's what the bleacher bums do, not us. I don't understand how somebody would do that anyway. Give it to a kid if you don't want it, they sure will.

Running with the Marlins, I like it because it actually makes the game seem alive.

I mean, I've put together 3 very solid seasons and a WS win - and still have a half-full stadium?

One thing I liked about the Rays in the game is when they bring out the cowbells and sometimes there's the awesome (and slightly eerie?) sound of all those cowbells just going off. I don't know, just seems to make it more atmospheric for me and not just the same "MVP" chant or such (which is also nice)

I don't know about you, but playing as the Braves at home, the fans chant MVP at the oddest times. Sometimes, they chant it for multiple people on the team. Sometimes, the players they chant it for are nowhere close to MVP award level, career-wise OR season-wise. Sometimes, they'll be chanting MVP at a player only 2 or 3 weeks into the season. I think I've heard it so much for so many different people, it's lost it's atmospheric qualities for me.
