I will have to take a look, but so far I have noticed it working as it should.

I haven't had any crashes yet. Ive owned the games since the 4th of March, and just really started playing it last weekend.

I quickly went through the '09 season in my franchise, only to see that SCEA apparently could not assign proper contracts to coaches?

What a let down. I mean, its a baseball sim, correct? Its not asking much.

Joe Girardi to Boston? Ozzie Guillen wouldn't re-sign, so he went to head the Baltimore farm system? Ozzie was extended through 2012, nearly 2 years before this game was released...

Thats just lazy. Fantastic 'base' game, but SCEA has got to strap it down when it comes to such things...

The MLBPA won't let them have correct player contacts, so I bet there is a association for coaches similiar to the MLBPA that doesn't allow correct contracts for the coaches either.

It took a ton of effort and convincing to allow them to use dollars instead of points.

just wanted to post my experience with the may 8th problem.

i was having the issue of the game crashing while going to may 8th. so i followed the advice i found in this thread to uninstall the patch. well it didnt help. i had to redo all of my music for nothing.

what did work was me going to another teams schedule, i used the jays, and going to may 9th and siming to date. then back to my schedule and continue my season.

Can you really blame them with the way some of you have acted/reacted/posted?

Either way, the patch is on the way. Not sure if there is much else to discuss at this point.
