The McCutchen cover is at the end of the video. I will also say that I like the new Capitol Field.

I meant to post a pic of that! It looks about as much as I figured it would.

I think the community will really enjoy the new stadiums, they are very well done.

I really liked seeing the across the board gameplay additions like how transparent bunting works and that sneak peak at the new guess pitching.

Not gonna lie, Nick sounds like he is stoned out of his mind lol

Anyone notice any goodies? Too lazy to look for them myself...

Edit:

Well, I decided to look through the vid again... There are a couple of things that stood out to me:

1. The new PCI covers a good chunk off the plate. The underlying feature here is that it should be much easier to make solid contact on pitches thrown outside the zone

2. Assuming the game is being played with default sliders, pitch speed looks pretty slow, and that curveball was a lollipop curve, aka a bad one. Hopefully the spin tightens up with an increase in speed and/or movement...

3. Piggybacking on #2, the ball leaving the pitcher's hand and the subsequent follow-through looks buttery smooth so far

4. Generic 1, the Pillsbury dough boy chest protector, and high stirrups are still in the game

5. The generic players still look a little cartoony to me, although some of it has to do with that hideous uni combo lol

I think the cover is a bit bland... but that was besides the point. Thanks for the video.
