I must have missed that. At what point in the video was that?

Really nice work.
Strongly prefer your bluer-shaded skies.

Those are air conditioned jackets - new feature.

I loved all the presentation stuff and had a big smile on my face with how the game looked and moved more smoothly. My hope one day, looking at how much better commentary got, is SDS implements spanish commentary. I know that would be so much work, but a wish nonetheless. The game does look better visually, enough for a purchase for me right now!

At the very end of the stream. Kirby talked about the presentation and commentary changes to the game once each game ends. He even said "We never got a chance to show you this". Of course I'm paraphrasing his words, his exact words may be slightly different. But that was what he was alluding to. He never got to show us all the presentation and commentary changes he wanted to show us.

I'm unsure how much of it was the stream but the game appeared glitchy in some spots. I realize it is a WIP and may just be the stream and not the actual game its self but some of the check swings looked awkward. A couple of the animations didn't look too smooth and neither did some of the swings.

Matty V in this game sucks plain and simple!!

A couple of thoughts:

I love the MLB Network overlays; I hope Kirby continues to expand that next year with additional presentations.

Foul ball replay!

It's small but I'd love to see no cut-scenes when the catcher is throwing the ball back to the pitcher; both after a take/swing and foul ball. Just stay in the same camera from start to finish...kind of like real-time view.

I LOVE the additional catcher setups. Gosh, it adds so much realism.

HR and Plesac actually sound really good; I do feel there still is a bit much in dead air but I'll guess more lines next year will help with that. I do wish Matty was a bit more personable and talking with the commentators...I'd like to hear more dialog versus just Q:A or single comment types.

The Dodgers were 93-27 which equates out to 118 wins over the entire season when Kirby was showing the season calendar. The OS hybrid rosters can mitigate that with rating adjustments but still...yikes!
