MLB 2010 Signature Player Animations/Personal Routines Help
 

We are about to start compiling a database for new signature player animations for MLB2010. We would like your input what Chris is looking for is any player specific routines, rituals, celebrations, home run routines, etc......... That any player might do that we currently don't have in the game.

So here is the template just fill it out. (Don't worry about the video we can get our hands on that.) Chris just needs to know who does it, what they do, when they do it, and how often they do it.

Team: (Self Explanatory) Post the template in bold and your reply in standard
Players Name: (Self Explanatory)
Signature/Personal Routine: (These can be anything and everything I.E. Batter walk ups, signature home run routines, K-Rods antics after a save, special handshakes after a run is scored, etc......) Also please use extreme detail when describing what the player(s) do.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? (Self Explanatory)


P.S. don't post batting stance corrections in here we have another form for getting feedback on those

Team: Ichiro
Players Name: Seattle Mariners
Signature/Personal Routine: Pendulum leg swing.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? Every at bat before he swings. This goes for just about every Japanese player in the game as well.

Team: Vernon Wells
Players Name: Toronto Blue Jays
Signature/Personal Routine: Batting stance also needs to be redone. He just taps his front heel and taps the bat on his shoulder. There is way too much movement in his current stance. He also finishes with 2 hands on the bat. Don't know if his current stance is like that.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? Every at bat.

Team: Derek Jeter
Players Name: New York Yankees
Signature/Personal Routine: His stance really needs to be redone. The one 2K9 has is perfect. His double foot tap, he looks like he's dodging an inside pitch after every pitch he takes and after he swings he looks like he is getting jammed (hands finish at waist level instead of over shoulder).
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? Every at bat.

Re: MLB 2010 Signature Player Animations/Personal Routines Help
 

Team: Atlanta Braves
Players Name: Brian McCann
Signature/Personal Routine: Puts hit bat in-between his legs, takes his helmet off and holds it w/his left hand, wipes his brow with his right forearm and then places the helmet back on. (Is this enough detail? ;))
Situations? At least once an at bat but not every single pitch.

Players Name: Their 3 outfielders
Signature/Personal Routine: They meet behind second base in the grass and all three jump up together and "bump" each other
I think this is already in, I don't remember off hand.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? After every win.

Team: Cubs
Players Name: Zambrano
Signature/Personal Routine: Smashes his bat down or breaks it over his leg.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? After a strikeout

I know this isn't a "signature" thing he does, but its something he does and it'd be nice to see him do it once in a while when I strike-out with him, haha.

Team: Cubs
Players Name: Derrek Lee
Signature/Personal Routine: He bends his back backwards a little bit like he's trying to crack it.
What game situation(s) and how often does the player(s) perform this routine? Usually, at the beginning of every at-bat and sometimes before each pitch.
