I note, however, that the ball animation stops when this is turned on. I don't know if that is by design.

I am seeing both ball animation and hearing text to speech. Which option are you using, just the text to speech or sound+ text to speech? I'm using the latter and seeing both.
I didn't even notice the text to speech feature until you said it. I agree: that's a terrific idea. It would be great if you could get human recorded text to speech down the line.
I'm not sure, but it also seems like the text to speech might have been edited to properly say player's names. For instance, it says Teixeira correctly, and I can't imagine Siri not butchering that one.
Edit: Maybe not on that last point. Yankees catcher Brian Mickin just came up to hit for me. How does it get Teixeira spot on and then butcher McCann?
