I found the ball/strike count lagged a bit behind the pitch description. The count should update before the next pitch, but instead updates during the next pitch.

There are still some issues to be sorted though, I got some unknown pitches with unknown results, don't know what that means. Overall I liked the new viewer, and the new diamond graphic is exactly what people were asking for, so I think this one is a keeper. Having said that, I must confess I only used the new viewer one time, and that's because it takes too long. I mean with several games to watch per day, 20 minutes to watch each one of them takes too much time for me. I went back to the question marks viewer, but it would be nice to have the option to use the old at bat viewer, so I don't have to do the scrolling myself. I also must add that I didn't find the new viewer as exciting as the old one. Maybe it's just me, or maybe it's because I only tried the new viewer once, but with each bat now taking much more time the drama kind of fades away. But I'm sure there are many other players out there who love this new viewer so it's good the game has it, and maybe I'll use it more times in the future, but for now I would appreciate to have the option to have the old viewer instead.

Yeah, this is a product of how the game engine processes things. I am looking into a way resolve this issue, but for the short-term, its just going to work like that. I found the ball/strike count lagged a bit behind the pitch description. The count should update before the next pitch, but instead updates during the next pitch. The score, number of outs, the count and base runners are from before the pitch. Those values are updated after the pitch. I don't know...is that too confusing?
