Playstation.Blog has posted another MLB '10: The Show blog. This one showcasing the cover athlete Joe Mauer, with quite a few nice gameplay clips mixed in.

	"Ever wonder how the MLB The Show series nails all those in-game animations? It’s because the team in San Diego brings in actual players who show them how it’s done. This week, Minnesota Twins catcher and AL MVP Joe Mauer was in the motion capture studio to, um, run around in spandex with a glove and bat. The results will be apparent when the game hits early next month."

In motion, the game looks even better than I imagined..

I'm speechless.

That behind-the-pitcher camera is sexy!

If it was a female I would have TOS-violating fantasies about it.

EDIT: Oh, and just a note to Russell or someone (and I know the stadiums are locked), but before I saw a screenshot that made me believe the RCF wall says 328 feet instead of what I believe is supposed to say 367 feet. This video confirms that it says 328 still, so if Target Field could be unlocked for just a brief second to change that, we'd be rockin'!

Wow, that RTP is smooth as butter. VERY nice.

Did anyone else think Mauer's right wrist shouldn't bend that way on the warm up swings? It looked kind of painful

The only thing I really don't like is the camera switching before the ball hits the bat. Not a big deal, but something I noticed in 09 and hoped they would work on.

It's unfortunately looked like that in all of The Show games since at least 2005. I think it's just the way the player skeleton is and maybe they can't move the proper way. Hopefully new player models in the future will take care of this look.

I always hoped for that slight delay look like on TV, only a little less slightly obviously so we can be able to field the ball coming to us.
