Mike Matheny- wait, what?

[chuguman99]

I know that due to licensing, the game uses "Mitch Mathieson" in place of Cardinals manager Mike Matheny. However, during an exhibition game today, when the game showed a close-up of him, Vasgerian said "Mike Matheny here" and proceeded to detail his career as a catcher. How is this possible, if the game can't even use "Mike Matheny" as the in-game manager?

It still didn't look like him, did it? Which rosters were you using?

Didnt they update the Mangers last year like Kirk Gibson or Don Mattingly?

No, it looked the same as it usually does. I was using the OSFM Roster, but it can't change what Vasgerian says.

They did, but in every other instance it still says "Mitch Mathieson", and Matt V. still just says "the Cardinals manager" when referring to him.

Understood, I'm just curious whether or not it did that because they expected to edit Matheny in a patch or roster update (however they do it).

OR, you had a better weekend with your friends than you thought you did and youre hallucinating.... either way, Im still curious if he has been edited yet in the new updates.

He hasn't been updated anywhere else, which is what makes it weird. Vasgerian's comment is the only time I've seen him referred to as Mike Matheny. My PS3 internet is screwy, so I can't say if it's been completely fixed in the updates. (Also, If what you said is true, it would explain why I can't remember a thing 'bout my weekend ).

Classic!

After seeing how the game's take on Matheny was a mustachioed Italian-looking guy, I thought I was hallucinating!
