some people skip the home run trot, so for those people they'd only see the second pop up. so I don't see any real harm in just leaving it in

If they want to show it for a longer period, or re-display the one banner, thats fine. I'm not against that and I don't think tnixen is either. The concern is that they have two different banners that appear back to back. It looks weird, like different scenes were pieced together separately.

So they showed off Edwin's Edwing and Donaldson's "The 6" HR trots. Who else has a sweet HR trot that we could look forward to. Do Harper or Trout do anything rounding the bases?

I'm hoping to see people mess with Beltre's head after he hits a HR...

The only thing I can think of (and hoping it gets in) is Adam Jones always taps his left forearm twice with his hand as he crosses home plate after a home run.

Pitching looks very boring to me again. However, I am encourage by a lot from that stream.

Agree. The bat floating by home plate is quite noticeable during the stream, however during gameplay I would think it would be less obvious.

Noticed a few OF throws where the OF had both shoulders facing the direction he was throwing. I've seen this in past iterations of the game as well, wonder if it is part of the "preloading" process and transition animation(s).
