Yes on Roberto Alomar. Looks like they also might have Jackie Robinson?

I fully expect Javier Baez to sometimes go into that home run trot, only for it to not go over the fence.

Seeing those same ridiculously lame grass patterns and coloring is honestly way too much for me to care anymore. The shoulders on some of the models in that video were also just OMG. I can barely tell the difference from PS3 at times. Whatever. I hope the game does well. I don't have the time. I know some people will be mad and angry that someone doesn't love this but I really don't care.

Looks like some sort of Statcast feature is in there. Nice touch.

Deal with it. Nothing I said is really wrong at all. I expected way more on the graphics. This is basically nothing. SO yeah my joy was killed here big time. I have no reason to invest in a long season of baseball when the Twins suck and this game doesn't move forward from its PS3 renderer.

They need to release the retro game mode early. I'd love to play that thru the winter!

Okay, not that it's any of my business but is MythicalGnome = ZealousMonkey = khronikos?

EDIT: Nevermind, my question may have just been answered. I do wish for greater detailed ground textures as well, especially if the Pro handles things smoothly enough in 4K. Either way, there are still visual jumps there that I'm pretty excited about.

I actually watched the trailer while proctoring SAT's (don't worry, only two students left and they're being well-monitored haha), but that means I didn't get any audio. Did they tease any of the Retro Mode music in that part of the trailer? If so, any linking to Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Major League Baseball (SNES)?
