Dave, I played about 100 games myself last year and it happened twice to me.

This game sounds pretty clean so far. Man, at least when I get it I won't have to come here and post. It will all be done. Thanks guys.

Yeah....
I played HUNDREDS(maybe more..meaning maybe thousands including sportscast...I'm such a sad case)...and it happened to me maybe three or four times.
It's like a little rip in time and space and only the catcher can see the ball

I've got to say, I'm very happy with the limited amount of "bug" info. If the only complaints are walk off's not being tallied right and what appears to be just an error in boxscoring, I can live with that. And many thanks to all the guys who have the game and still find time to get on here and help out all us poor slobs without it...I for one am very greatful (and maybe a tad jealous...lol)

The only bugs that I've noticed after 10+ games have been the same as every year.

- Sometimes when you go to warm up a pitcher in the bullpen, they show you the opposing team's pitchers instead

- Energy of pitchers is always displayed as full in bullpen

So that one didn't get caught. Well, back to checking their stamina in the starting pitcher screen before the game them. If I can remember.

I wonder what anyone who is on the fence between The Show and 2k is thinking when they come here and see 14+ pages in the bug thread for a game that hasn't been officially released yet.

If they don't read the whole thread they might think The Show was all hype and has major issues.

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!! I was just playing the demo and Manny roped a shot back to my pitcher and it looked like the ball got stuck in his head then the game froze. Anyone else seen anything like this on the demo or actual game? That was crazy. If the pitch came in at 93 mph, he must have hit it back at 193 mph the way that shot looked. It just disappeared right in my pitcher's face and the game locked up. That was wild!!!!!!!!!

I just played my first game of my A's franchise's spring training games and it was the top of the ninth i think or eighth and the brewers were coming up and the game froze as if there was a batter in the box getting set in his stance. no biggie just fast forwarded to the bottom of the inning. issue over. no biggie

Either I'm rediculously tired from being up late or I'm a sick sick man...but I don't care who you are, THAT is hilarious. My stomache actually hurts from laughing at the thought of a ball getting wedged in the digital noggin of another player and the subsequent "WTF!?" that likely came out of your mouth.

Not to mention, I was already pretty tore up reading about the shorstop that ran off to shake hands with someone in LF followed by a center fielder who thought the ball had razor blades; all capped by a sliding cover-up by the catcher who launches himself on the ball out of nowhere to save the day.

That's straight out of little league. Just don't picture it, the end results are too painful.

WOW..........those are some pretty messed up things you mentioned there. LOL I haven't seen those yet. I wish I could have replayed that shot that stuck in the pitcher's head. I was just setting there with my mouth wide open in amazement. I've seen some crazy glitches over the years but that one just looked too damn funny. Maybe it was like that trick where someone catches a bullet with their teeth, only this was a baseball. Come to think of it, that would have to be a pretty damn big mouth for that to happen. Maybe what happened next would have been too graphic so the game froze to keep me from having to see the end result of that mound trick gone bad.
