Thanks, I just read this in another thread.

May just be coincidence but in my three games I'm not seeing NEARLY as much power. As in from one extreme to the other.

weird. I had this happen for the first time last night. Custom 1977 rosters (Cle at KC) vs CPU. 8th inning they sub Freddie Patek to pinch run for catcher John Wathan, then replace Wathan w/Darrell Porter, but instead of putting him in to catch, they put him at SS and Patek as catcher!!!! Needless to say there were MANY dropped balls behind the plate.

played 2 games tonight and glad to say the 'umpf' is back in the hitting.

played as the yankees and had a good game. won 5-2 and judge smacked one out when i timed and placed it perfectly. also saw good driving baseballs like in release and unlike the last 2 patches where the ball went dead.

played a PLAY LIVE game A's vs Wsox too. Had some quality hits as the Sox but the A's got some good dingers on me and I lose 4-2.

I'll play more but it feels like they fixed the hitting.

Only glitch was in the announcing. had a base hit and the announcer said i flied out foul. happened twice on hits. never had this before but no big deal.

I'm seeing quite the opposite. Not saying you are wrong at all as obviously we probably play on different difficulty levels, sliders, teams etc.

It's probably placebo. I tend to blame slight things on that after patches. Very profound things I'll pay attention to, but otherwise I assume it's in my head.

I'm seeing more pop in the bats. However as I said in another post, it may just be placebo. Damn though, it sure feels like I'm getting more/better hits. The better hits could be a result of getting more and that could be where I feel the pop is coming from.

Like the patch thus far.

I just played a game at Fenway and noticed they had Ortiz's number up.......maybe this was already there but it was my first trip to Fenway.

Would be nice to know if the hitting has indeed changed. I'm thinking no since we haven't heard anything from SDS.
