WVU9 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Ok, someone help me out. I just installed the MVP 07 patch (which is awesome, if you don't have it, go get it) and decided that I would change my pitching camera so I'm looking from behind the pitcher in at the catcher. Then I noticed something wacky... The catcher, in between pitches, goes down on one knee. Now, I played 2 years of little league, 3 years of Babe Ruth, 4 years of varsity baseball, 5 years of Legion ball, 3 years of MAJOR D1 college baseball and pitched all of those years and never once did my catcher ever get down on one knee between pitches. I've taken to looking for it during MLB games on ESPN and whatnot and they don't do it there either. What a silly thing to have in such a great game. Thoughts?

kgbaseball Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Video game catchers need to save their knees, too. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30870-mlb-05-catchers/#findComment-440205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYM Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I catch occasionally and if my legs are feeling a little stiff I usually get up and throw it to the pitcher. I never got down on one knee.

59FIFTY Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 The catchers don't use kneesavers, and i've seen kendall just sit on 1 knee when he catches a standard pitch xD Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/30870-mlb-05-catchers/#findComment-440231 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVU9 Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 Yeah, but that's DURING a pitch... with no one on base (Tony Pena made this famous in the 80's). I just feel like I should give video game Veritek a stool to sit on when I see him slouching like that!
