Okay so if your fielders circle is red and you know the throw is going to be an error....Why throw it???

Well there are a couple of things you can do or need to consider.

1. You can just cancel the throw and throw it again. However if you fielded the ball in the infield most likely you won't have time to get the runner out.

2. You might not have time to que up another throw.

3. If the fielder you are using has high enough fielding ratings he might be good enough to pull your red throw back into the yellow area.

4. If the ball is hit in the outfield and you re-preload depending upon your timing you will miss your branch point. Which causes him to trigger a throw ready animation. When this happens you loose all spectacular animations and smooth transitions.

Will we be able to cut off throws this year?

If i remember there was fog in the rain video I'm uploading to OS now. The rain is hard to see in the video because of the grayness of the sky and the fog. I should of gotten closer to the television. Upload will take about an hour from now to OS youtube.

Yeah, I asked Ramone if the rain would look the same all the time and he said that it would vary based on the time of day and stadium. So the one I'm uploading is from Kauffman stadium and it looks dreary gray. We should of progressed inning by inning to see how it affected the look had I thought about it.

Looking forward to seeing the rain AND Kauffman Stadium in the same video!
