Same goes for pitchers, who will come at you with anything from a full submarine-style delivery to the standard overhand. Players also have all the nice little tendencies that add to the overall realism of the presentation. Pitchers will windmill their arms on occasion and hang their heads if you knock one out off them. Omar Vizquel even taps his front foot in readiness to uncoil his swing. Infielders will lazily scratch at the dirt with the cleats, and wander over to the bag between pitches to keep the runner guessing.
Audio quality is also beyond reproach.
Crowd noise is well realized and very intelligent. If you're visiting, you'll of course receive the same sort of attention with boos and catcalls. The occasional shouts of hecklers and vendors can be heard loud and clear behind the low roar of the crowd. Gameplay sounds are of the same high quality, with the crack of the bat ringing out in convincing fashion. Overall I found the commentary to be very entertaining and smooth.
