Shouldn't this have been a HR?

watch the bottom of the third inning. Is that a fault in the game that that wasn't a homerun?

It was right off the top of the wall. No bug.

If you want a little more clarification, the game is rendered before you actually watch the "live" game. The rendering takes many things into account, including which stadium the game is being played in. Each stadium has different dimensions that are coded in. The designers thus had to create images for these stadiums that fit the exact same dimensions. It's very possible that the stadium image just doesn't match up 100% perfect with the actual coding. Either way, it was not a bug in the game, although possibly a graphical issue with the stadium itself.

Smallball should have the yellow line rule.

That would be great and more realistic. Cool

I think you're missing the point. Painting lines on top of the walls will have no effect because as Chippy said the graphic representation of the field has nothing to do with the actual game as played. The game is only a set of numbers plugged into formulas.

Great response Chip, we should save that and plug it in as needed.
