And you thought all of the umpires were fake...




This is the real guy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Winters

Crazy coincidence or perhaps a little intentional? Even if SCEA says he's fake, I'm still gonna say he's the real guy.

It's also cool how SCEA was able to get names for the other umpires that are close to the real-life umpires' names or even combinations, such as CB Hernandez.

There's also an umpire named Knight, so I know who to blame if he starts squeezing me in a pressure situation when I'm pitching against the Mets.

(I was about to put this in the impressions thread, but then I realized no one else would be able to respond to it. :\ )

Maybe for some umpires who give permissions, the devs can include them?

By the way is that game log from PS3? I notice that first and last names are swapped. I know on Vita it's first and then last name.

There's an ump that's been in the game that looks like Jada Kiss.

All I know is that some of them have a pretty terrible strikezone this year lol.

Yes, it's from PS3. I already reported it in the Bugs thread because on PS3, the umps that returned from MLB 11 have their names as FIRST LAST, but the new umps are listed LAST FIRST like that.

All of the umpires are fictional.
