... and then I stopped reading. Can't someone who knows a thing or two about sports (maybe the sport he's writing about) do an article like this?
Wow, someone gets paid to write a preview and they can't take a minute to google a term they are going to put in their article.

Exactly. I saw this and was hoping it was just playing on a low skill level, but he moved it up and still was throwing 85% strikes. All this new stuff seems great, but it once again appears that 2K has missed the important basics. Sad.

I mean, he even mentions he's not nailing the pitch gestures correctly and still he never walked one batter in all the games he pitched. Somethings still not right here.

No one even throws the Ephesus. At least no one that I know of.

Isn't the 2K mantra the pitcher and hitter matchup. I thought that was what was supposed to set the game apart. Sounds like they didn't tell the developers this.
This is straight off 2K's website

Come on people. Obviously the writer of the blog really has no clue on what's he's doing, hence making it the developer's fault as usual.

Boy the hate for this series is stronger than Darth Vader's hate towards the empire..

Last pitcher to throw it was Orlando Hernandez I believe.

That first pitchers cam pic is quite discouraging in my opinion. Looks like a PS2/xbox game.
