MLB 13: The Show Live Launches

[davis420]

I just played the Yankees and Red Sox game from tonight. A 2-0 victory for the Yanks! To bad this is a video game and not real life.

Every game is still opening day.

Just played an epic 19-inning marathon, DET @ MIN, on the Vita nonetheless. I ended up winning 5-4. The FA filler actually came into play because there were so many pitchers used, so I ended up facing Brian Wilson in the 18th. I thought Coke was going to blow it like in real life, after he gave up a lead-off double in the bottom of the 19th...

Spoiler

OK. I'm sleepy now...lol.

They updated them about an hour before game time. When did you look at the pitching matchup?

Yeah, that needs to be ironed out. The records are not updating therefore the opening day presentation kicks in. The lineups and cumulative stats are right for the most part, except where you have rookies playing.

In the game I just played against the Twins had Mastrionni in CF, since the rookie was actually starting today. Other than that the STARTING lineups were spot on.


Edit: the opening day thing is fixed now. Records are running a game behind still, but you will no longer get the opening day presentation.

18 innings and zero walks? Where's the plate discipline, Slab?

Crazy game ... glad you were able to win.

Yeah, discipline was out the window. I was trying to end it with big swings... and all I got was a lot of K's.

I swear, I have discipline somewhere deep down inside lol.
