just a thought when you said "ticker"..not the same idea but..how about an option to turn off the top score line if you want..
again not a big deal but just a little thing imo I find distracting after awhile

lol..the cpu is more agressive on the basepaths in Legend mode..I just had Kazmir steal second. Actually I think it was supposed to be a hit and run, but still, hit and run with the pitcher aboard?

Oh, Joe Maddon, you're a sly one..

The cpu fielders will go for it all at times and miss the ball allowing it to roll to the wall. With that said, the same thing can happen to you to if you try it.

Thanks...I'll keep my eye out. Maybe I'll max the hitting sliders so I can see the different XBHs that are possible.

You should be pleased this year.

Sometimes you can dive and keep the ball in front of you when they do a feet first slide.
