You mentioned piece of it in the other thread about throws being a little more online to homeplate but are they actually going to the 3B side rather than the catcher continually having to reach? Great stuff though, man.

Fielding acts pretty much the same from last year from what I can tell. Animations and ball physics makes it more enjoyable for me tho. We didn't have any plays at the plate today so yesterday was the only time I saw 3 plays at plate and the catcher had to reach for it on 1st base side and then bring over the tag. Haven't seen any balls go overtop of OF's from my recollection.

Unfortunately I don't think so. The game we played in full was there tho. Maybe some onlooker took some vid.

Yes, I did and I got so caught up in the game that we played I totally forgot because after I was interested in just getting as much video as I could as there was only like 1 hour left before he had to leave. I am very interested in that too you know! Maybe you could ask him here.

Is the throwing meter a little more responsive this year? Like if u tap the button, is it a weak throw and vice versa? Last year alll throws were rocket throws no matter how long u held the button......

The button does not matter. However, player's throwing attributes greatly affect the throw. I saw Manny throw from OF to 2B and it wasn't pretty. Kind of just lofted in the air.
