Well this thread is off to a banging start.

I think rather than just making a “little things” thread and expecting everyone to know what that is, there should be an explanation or ground rules of what this annual topic is all about. Also, should link to prior years perhaps so people can get a taste or perhaps read about things that maybe they thought were new, but rather have been in the game for years and get reposted constantly.

I noticed they got rid of that little hitch at the end of every home run swing, which is nice. I've also noticed in videos that the batter's box deterioration is much much better this year.

The emotions after a pitcher strikes a batter out in a key situation.

The pitching coach jogging from in front of the dugout to the mound instead of just magically appearing there during mound visits is a great touch.

Some of the new pre-game scenes are great. Players signing balls for fans, close-ups of the home pitcher leading the team out onto the field, etc.

I love the new between-pitch cameras (they are off by default for some reason, so remember to turn them on). Especially when I am at bat. I love how you can press X and the batter will do his little pre-pitch motion, it just looks cool with the new cameras.

New feet-first slides look great.

Not sure if this was in last year, but the chimes when the Yankees score a run now sounds much more like the ones played at Yankee Stadium. The "PC Richard" whistle is still a knockoff version. One "little thing" they didn't add are the flashing lights at the Stadium for homeruns. I was really hoping they would get it in this year.

Love the new "emotion" animations from the players I have seen. Although they still tend to overreact for random singles in early/mid innings at times.
