I picked up the game this afternoon. First MLB game I've gotten since the MVP days. I hated the 2k baseball games from the previous years but I downloaded the demo this year and really enjoyed it. So I decided to go pick up the game today. Started a franchise with the Brew Crew and just finished up the opening series with the Giants. Won the series 2-1. I am very happy with it so far. Hopefully I can actually finish the entire 182 game season for once.

I'm starting a 2k9 league soon. May need 1 to 2 people to fill it out, if you're truly interested, let me know via PM. I'd prefer non-14 year olds to be honest, sorry.
I do have a nice sliders list that has been working out VERY well with games. Those sliders will be used in this league. The league is 10 games long, then the playoffs. If all goes well, I'll start a 2nd league.
Everyone in the league is 21+, we don't play like bungholes. That doesn't mean we throw strikes all game so the ball can be hit...but we don't throw crapty pitches in the dirt all game either. Very competative games that are actually a lot of fun.
If you're losing in the 9th and you're going to quit, please don't even PM me showing interest. Take the loss and learn from it. Same goes if you're down 9-0 in the 3rd. Don't quit.
If you're interested and want more info, PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Use the right analog stick to throw, MUCH more accurate. I was having problems with it also until I did that. Also may want to download some sliders to better the accuracy.

Every time I pitch, the opposing team ALWAYS swings at the first pitch. Seriously, I was pitching with Sabathia and by the 8th inning he had only thrown 32 pitches.

It's a problem that a patch will need to fix. I throw a lot of pitches out the zone, and they swing. VERY rarely lay off. But with the sliders I use, I do often strike people out. All my games Ive played have been pretty close. I get quite a few Ks too, so it evens it out.

I was going to get this game but then I heard about the glitches and the franchise mode trouble. Is this still true?
I'm a big franchise player so I would not buy the game if the franchise modes messed up.
And did they make any changes to franchise from 2K8 to 2K9. If so what?

The glitches are still in the game.
Franchise mode is pretty much broken.
