Re: **MLB 08: The Show (All versions) Bugs/Glitches Thread**

At least one other person and myself mentioned this in the impressions thread. I didn't see it in here; my apologies if I just overlooked it.

You can't turn off just the spinning ball in the fielding display. It's either on with the spot shadow, or all the fielding markers are off. Not a huge bug, but annoying if you like to play without the spinning ball.

Stinks that the profile bug is back. I was hoping that would get fixed. If its like last year, you can keep your record accurate by NOT saving your profile after you play. Of course, you'll lose all your stats, but the record will be accurate.

Actually I do think there are some circumstances where the official scorer is allowed some latitude in assigning the victory, but I'm pretty sure by rule it can't be the starter unless he gets that fifth inning in.

Rule 10.17 gives the official scorer A LOT of latitude in granting which relief pitcher gets the win.....maybe too much to effectively code into the game properly.
I wouldn't say this is a bug...I think you just gotta give the game a pass on this one.

Did you end up taking the lead in the same inning? (i.e., were you losing 2-1 and then went up 5-2 in the 5th inning)

The relief pitcher didnt get the W.. Thats the problem. Yes there are circumstances when multiple relief pitchers are used and the official scorer has some decisions to make in granting a RP the win... but this is not the case.

No prob! I am trying to figure this out. I think that if he was losing and took the lead in the 5th inning, the SP would be credited with the W because he was able to finish the majority (2/3 IP) of that inning before the RTTS player came in to finish the last 1/3.

If it was Spring Training, the starter would get the win because the 5 inning rule is not in effect. However, if it was season/franchise during the regular season then it should have gone to the pitcher who finished the 5th (esp considering he pitched til the 8th).

Re: **MLB 08: The Show (All versions) Bugs/Glitches Thread**

OK I JUST CAME ACROSS A REAL GLITCH!

im facing the mets in my spring training game. the mets start bringing a couple of pinch hitters witch turn into defensive subs. the sub in Olmedo Saenz TWICE! one on first and the other at 3rd base. when the one playing 1st base comes up to bat NO ONE IS THERE! so the game is stuck. i had to take over the mets and sub in a batter and the only choices they game me were pitchers. so i had to have them pinch hit with a pitcher!

after that everything was cool but it was wierd. reminded me of the defensive matchup bug in NBA 2K8!

Re: **MLB 08: The Show (All versions) Bugs/Glitches Thread**

Without me having to seach back through all these pages of glitches, can someone briefly describe the walkoff homerun glitch regarding rbi's and the glitch where the losing and winning pitcher both get credited with a win? Do these occur in all game play modes and how often do they occur? I'm really looking forward to this game but I'm a huge stat guy and these 2 things worry me somewhat. Thanks.
