Thanks Nem.

That's what I thought, but I love the diagram!!!

Am I the only one confused by the quote though?

No offense, DMBFan. Your reporting is gold. I just got tripped up there.

He worded that a little odd....I think he meant theoretically speaking

Agreed.

It's a great cheat sheet.

For example when playing online could I be using say analog hitting and my opponent be using classic hitting? Or whatever options that are chosen would have to be used by both players. This would be cool especially when playing friends. Last year some of my buddies wanted to use classic pitching and others wanted to use meter pitching. When we set up an online league we had to choose one or the other. Thanks in advance and get some sleep!!!!

You will have your own online profile on whether to use analog or not for batting, pitching, fielding. Not sure on the other request.

As I read that, it makes me think you're saying that the camera is stationed at a certain point behind home plate in the stadium, like you would see on TV. At least that's naturally what it sounds like. So first I just want to confirm that's what it means. Secondly, does that mean that the camera will always be right there, set behind home plate? Or will it be like last year where the view goes down the first or third base lines if the ball is hit to the left or right side? I don't think the question I asked is too confusing, so if it is I'll clear it up. I just want to know basically if we are getting one broadcast camera this year, not three.

Yes, I believe this to be so. Ramone cycled through all the teams stationary broadcast camera behind the pitcher view when pitching. I don't know if there are other camera's related to the specific team however.

Sure, I love detail but I don’t know how its changed so please don’t ask. Hi... can you advise what new stat overlays are in place? say you're the pitcher... the opponent batter walks into the batter box... stats appear? things like 0-3 today? batting avg. vs right handers, vs left handers? last at bat made an out on what pitch?

Didn't see a lot of stats because we pushed buttons to skip past mostly

Dmbfan,

Do you know if balks will occur if the pitcher does not come to a complete stop? I know some players simply like to choose their pitch and rush their delivery without comming to a complete stop.

Or, are balks simply going to happen when you are attempting to pick someone off?

Thank you for your review by the way. Excellent work.
