P.S. There are a few more fixes not listed above I'll add them asap. Also thank you (OS and everyone at Theshowcommunity.com) for your help in identifying some of issues.

-------------------------------------

*UPDATE: 3:50 PM EST
A new bug was introduced during the patch 3 process. The previous reported bug on this issue did not happen 100% of the time. There needed to be a perfect storm to recreate it, sadly we were never able re-create it in house or it would have been fixed.

Something happened in patch 3 that made the bug occur 100% of the time if the runner crossed home plate before the out was recorded.

We are looking at a 24 hour turnaround for 3rd out issue. Can't confirm the time frame though.

No, I just checked A's Bailey and still has the same face that doesn't resembles him at all. It should be fix for MLB 11!

Thanks to the SCEA team for still bringing the love to '10. Fixed many issues, and I'm just speechless at the Brandon Wood model, the graphics team outdid themselves on that one!

Thank you Russell for everything!

(Hope we get that run bug/glitch fixed)

That just doesn't look like Bailey, but I trust they will fix it for next season. Wish I was in Los Angeles playing the Show with you right now, miss you twin brother!

Please make Mick Kelleher the Yankees 1st base coach....or at least a small old white guy wearing #50. The guy who is currently in the game is like 10 feet tall and wears #18 and has a crazy beard.

Mick Kelleher was in the game last year, I don't know why he's been left out of this years game. Either way, it really ruins the game for me when they show a shot of like A-Rod at first base after a single and the 1st base coach is 3 feet taller than him!

after downloading the show patch #3 will it be reflected in all aspects of the show including my already started franchise???? thanks for the feedback...
 
# 208 Shammy5150 @ 05/19/10 03:22 AM
I downloaded the latest patch and now the sound during the game crackles at times. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

The patch seems to have worked on my existing Franchise. Brandon Wood's new face is in my Franchise even though my rosters were downloaded over a month ago and my Franchise was started 2 weeks ago.

the patch list says they changed kevin kouzmanoff's batting stance. i just checked, even downloaded the newest live roster. nothing is different about his batting stance. just sayin. does all this stuff in patch 3 including potentials, and face changings and everything work with knights roster??

i was just playing a game against the phillies with the pirates and was tied 5 to 5 with 2 outs left in the bottom of the 11th inning. ruiz grounded to laroche and he got the 5-3 out at first but the game was over, and dotel got the loss even though i clearly got the third out at 1st base. the infamous 3rd out bug happened to be. btw i am in the first year of my pirates franny with knights v.1 roster set. and another thing about the 2013 free agency list. i have gotten to 2013 and i have seen a few good free agents, but no 'stars.' this happened in nhl 10 also, which is kinda offtopic, but it seems more relevant in some recent sports games. if im not mistaking, it was happening in madden 10 too. they released i believe 3 nhl 10 patches (not sure on number) and didnt fix it, so i doubt mlb 10 will release one that fixes it. nothing against SCEA, but it just seems like something that we have to deal with. it could be worse

they fix wood but not scudaro i mean for those who doesn´t want to play with real life roster it´s ...... and so i have to rest scudaro on the bench for a mistake that could be fixed in 3 seconds

I have not seen this mentioned, so I'm not sure if it has happened to anyone else. However, I was just playing a game and a ground ball was hit towards second base, it was fielded properly, the bag was stepped on for the force out at second. On the throw to first base the ball sailed over the first baseman's head and went out of play. The problem was that the ball was not scored as "Out of Play" and the runner (who wasn't even halfway to first) went around all of the bases and scored at home, all while the camera was stuck on the crowd.

I had seen several balls thrown from the infield out of play pre-patch, but they were all scored correctly. Unfortunately this type of thing is really difficult to recreate (I tried using the pitcher to throw out of play on pick-off moves and this was scored correctly), so I thought I'd make a post and see if anyone else has run into this glitch post-patch.

this happened to me about a week ago when i was batting. i had the bases loaded and basically got a inside the park grand slam. only happened once but it was BEFORE this new patch was released

I also noticed that you can now edit Phillies, Cubs, Dodgers, Cardinals shoes, well accept for the main color...was this part of this patch 3 as well??
 
# 216 MDumont11 @ 05/19/10 10:07 AM
I was playing last night and i got to the 5th inning or so and my starter go into a little bit of trouble. Had guys on 1st and 3rd with 1 out. I turned the double play 6-4-3, ended the inning.....and their runner from third base counted as a run. I immediately turned it off and i wont play again until its fixed. I wish i wouldve seen this thread before i downloaded it. I wouldve stayed with Patch 2 as i was just fine with that one....

A 3rd patch: awesome
A major g bug: not so awesome
Not fixing the pitch history colours: why?

So the pitch history colors were definitely not fixed? I was really hoping that SCEA would address this. I can't stand not being able to tell the difference between the pitch types on the history screen, especially since they looked perfectly fine in all the previous versions of the game. I thought for sure that this was a bug since I can't imagine why SCEA would've intentionally changed this for the worse. Are you confirming this wasn't fixed first hand (I haven't downloaded patch 3 due to the scoring problem), or did you read it somewhere here on the boards?

When it is fixed, I am sure a mod or Russell will A) notify us and B) update the thread title.
