game looks solid. Looking forward to getting both baseball games this year. One question though: Was this supposed to be a weekday day game?? There are ALOT of businessmen with ties on in the stands. You dont see that on a regular basis in real life.

Were they chanting "Griffey! Griffey!"!?

If they were, that's AWESOME.

I also hope they boo the hell out of A-ROD.

LOL I hope they do too, but I don't think they would have had time to implement that.

Very first play: is the 2nd baseman's feet on fire?

Those puffs of dust are ridiculous; they're everywhere. Even in the errors video the catcher jumps onto the green turf and puffs of dust float away.

Lord, that's annoying.

True -- I actually got drilled in the temple playing first base in high school because the 2nd baseman rocketed one to me from about 10 feet away -- but the issue I was referring to is when the throwing animation doesn't match the speed of the throw. This often happens when an infielder will scoop a ground ball and throws quickly off-balance, only to have a lob come out. Does not compute...

If they're flat-footed, then it's fine. The user can control this to a degree by waiting for the fielder to set before throwing if you have time, but the AI will do as it pleases. The fielders (C/P/corner INFs) also could pull off some crazy throws on bunts or dribblers around the plate; I hope those have been weeded out for 2K9 or at least result in off-line or wild throws more often.
