Love this.

Interesting franchise information about morale and changes to progression - pitchers not as overpowered in progression.

I would hate that, sounds like a videogame gimmick. The crowd yells when a guy is stealing it's pretty obvious. I like the way they do it.

The crowd yells for a lot of other reasons though. How am I supposed to know that means a base is being stolen? Sometimes the crowd is still cheering from a previous event, sometimes they are just cheering a random cheer.

The leap from the crowd making noise to "a base is being stolen" is not a logical one in any capacity. I'm glad you are able to decipher it but it is arbitrary, and more importantly, inconsistent, at best.

It's a different kind of yell when it's a steal though. It stands out to me. Maybe they could have other cues I just wouldn't want some overlay or graphic I like the minimal look.

That Compacted Scorebug is a thing of pure design beauty.

Ramone - Please tell me that the Broadcast camera view for hitting is in the game. I didn't see it when you ran through the hitting views on the stream. This would be a major disappointment. I have pre-ordered and have been a loyal customer for years. Please tell me that this has been kept in the game like years past!

I am pretty sure it's still in

It would be listed under "In Play View Offense"
