also new screenshot found on Amazon

I noticed the blank hat too...this is great news!!!

Nike logo on the shirt and some kind of Satellite dish in right field both not seen in MLB 12 The Show.

But the grass and dirst looks the same to me. And I thought Irmemeber hearing that the grass and dirst are getting a major upgrade in MLB 13 The Show? Of course these could be very early screenshots.
Also pedroia has a Boston logo on his hat in 12...Jacoby does not in 13. Blank black hats is great news! No more players having old team logos once traded yay!

Just a guess though.

I think he's been on a few, but he currently does the non-Scully Dodger games. He's also an ex-player, played for multiple teams.

You probably recognize him from his playing days, with many teams... or from his fruit of the loom ad.

Also was an announcer on the ASB Baseball series from Acclaim.
I must admit...I loved him in that series.

Franchise mode being revamped and new playoff atmosphere is plenty excitement for me...don't expect all of the good news to come all at once

Yeah, I can't wait to really get deeeeep into franchise mode next year.

So excited to see what they've done with the mode. I'm not expecting anything crazy in the overhaul department... Just excited that they've put some real time into it for '13.

I don't think this means anything. If you look in other shots, like the Cabrera one posted earlier in the thread, they are still wearing team caps, plus if you look closely enough Ellsbury is still wearing a Red Sox jersey so I think it is just either tough to see, or it is just an early screenshot that wasn't touched up too much.
