Re: doubles

I gotta laugh...some of this zeal....like in this case...STAND UP DOUBLES...is NOTHING new....there were MANY doubles in The Show '08....stand up, sliding in, ground rule, bloops, etc...

againm, makes me wonder if guys actually PLAY the game, sim or play 1 or 2 and sim the rest (where no doubt you'll miss everything).

hit variety looks good to me, rays had 2 hits and both of them were doubles...STAND-UP DOUBLES! thank you

fielding is improved, it looks much smoother.

check-swings are in the game, but like our experts said, it's more difficult, especially with the pitcher at the plate.

Game plays pretty good out of the box, but I bet it will be huge with a good slider-setting.

Power is probably too much out of the box, I hit a bomb with Utley and one to the warning-track with Howard.
But Kazmir struck me out 4-5 times and I ended up with only 2 hits, if walks are fixed, this is great news.
