Thanks DJ - I’m still having fun with the game even after the review...but another 2-3 developers in the animation department would have done this game wonders

Seriously. If they could improve and enhance the fielding animations, that would make a huge difference. Still, as you said, the game is fun and a nice alternative while we wait for MLB The Show.

Absolutely - good news is this game is going nowhere and hopefully they keep this foundation and keep building on it

The second best baseball game is still Pro Yakyuu Spirits 2019/2020 and it isn't even close. Instead of trying to emulate The Show they should shoot for this as a benchmark.

Fair point - my opinion is they should really try to emulate a title like The Bigs 2...which would be an awesome approach.

Thanks for the review. I'll give this game a try. They should work on the animation system for next season. This game has potential.*
