Maybe it could be changed for MLB 14 The Show if it's already to late for 13.
I consider it a trade-off, at least until we get flame animations and the sort.

I think that info is valuable to a video game player because visually you can't differentiate between different pitch types that are close (5-7mph) - but still want that info while batting.

Yes, but I'd like to think that if you want that much info you'd also want to at least know where the ball was exactly in the zone by having simple callout turned on. So you would still get that.

It could be another option to have the pitch type displayed or not, but then its getting a bit cluttered in that setting. I'd actually be interested in a setting that only gave the strike/ball location callout and the MPH, no pitch type. Customization is great, but not essential all the time.

Its purely to make things more like a broadcast. They already went as far as making the score bar a scorebug, that indicated to me that they are working closer to getting a full broadcast presentation in the game. Inch by inch. This was another step in that direction and I am very grateful for it.

As it is now as I understand it the scorebug will always display the pitch callout even if pitch callout is off? There is no way to remove it from the scorebug? I wouldn't but I can see some people wanting it off for some reason.

But this is still HUGE!

I don't post here much, but I just wanted to reiterate that the past few pages of comments alone show why the community thinks so highly of this development team.

The fact that multiple developers would be willing to go into specific details of what the community members were looking for and then invest the time in adding the functionality to the game at this late stage (or after development is supposed to have ended) really speaks volumes about their dedication to not only the sport, but also to their customers.

Thank you all so much.

This was pretty much my biggest pet peeve in the game not replicating something a TV broadcast does, as i have pitch callout off and always wanted the pitch speed to remain there.

Woodweaver - you are a god amongst men.

Thankyou.

I just wanted to add I will try playing with pitch callout off now that I can get ALL the important info I need in the scorebug without having the visual overlays on.
