It was Prime Giambi on the A's on the Yankees. Ramone said they know that's not what number he wore on the Yankees.

I think the eyes look better. That was the only thing that always bugged me. The robot ninja turtle, Chucky Cheese mechanical eyes. Still, if my only gripe was eyes that shows they do a great job with the game.

Erg, I was going to hold off on this year's game. If they have that rule change that made the all-star game going back to not having the winner host the World Series I have to get it.

wow, can't believe they still have the same exact player models.

How is Retro mode any different from R.B.I. Baseball other than graphics? Did anyone ask for this? The graphics are still the same with a few tweeks. A handful of classic players doesn't interest me, classic teams and stadiums do. This tired old engine needs an overhaul. Why wouldn't Yankee Stadium be in there? Let me see Three Rivers, Riverfront or the Astrodome and I'll get excited. Really, this series has to evolve at some point. I'm sorry, but this Malibu Stacy with a new hat can sit on the shelf this year.

I keep watching the trailer. I think I may be just a little excited for MLB The Show '17

That pretty much sums up my thoughts.

Retro Mode would be worth it if you had the option to use it in Online Play or Franchise mode. It would nice to maybe play 10 regular franchise games and then mix in a retro just to switch it up. But the way I'm reading it, it seems it's only an exhibition mode that can be played locally. And honestly, who is gonna use that more than 2 or 3 times? I just hope the defense and absolutely terrible non working throwing meter is fixed.

With all the eye candy coming from the ps4 pro, I expected more. Not mad just a little disappointed. I hope I'm wrong
