Substitutions

[Cary]

Probably not a problem if you're using an iPad, but on my iPod Touch the little arrow inside a circle that you have to hit is so small that I'm not always sure I'm substituting for the right player. (In an important playoff game I accidentally subbed for my only remaining catcher.) It would be nice if the message you receive contains the name of the player that is being subbed for: "Do you really want to substitute Matt Kemp for Yadier Molina?"

I have the same issue on my iPod Touch. It would be nice if the substitution screen started out with buttons like "Choose a pinch hitter" and "Choose a new fielder", the way it does for the pitcher, and THEN showing you the list of players to choose from. I haven't even figured out what the column of impossible-to-push buttons arrows on the right side of the screen is.

Agreed completely (on my iPhone). If I remember correctly, I once put Cecil Fielder in as a pinch runner instead of a pinch hitter because it registered the touch on the player above the intended one.
