I'll be honest, I absolutely love the changes.

I hated the homerun derby that was 18. I remember playing games and it was basically 4-5 homeruns per side. With very little of anything else.

This year feels like a real baseball game, where you need to have more to your offense. You need to be able to manufacture runs, put the ball in play, move runners over, sacrifice, walk etc. I hate to break it to you guys, but sometimes (even in MLB) when you square up a ball, it doesn't go out. And sometimes they go right at someone.

The ONLY thing I don't like is the pitching. You've got get really fooled to strike out, which takes some of the skill out of it. I think with the ability to hit, it has taken some of the skill out of pitching.
