The "text sim" description is interesting, because I pay less and less attention to the text as the animation improves year to year. It's become an interesting mix of realistic stuff and unrealistic stuff that you just learn to recognize and interpret. One thing I really like is that the body language of the outfielders tells you the same things it does irl -- he's going back to the fence but he's kind of loping and he looks relaxed, this is a long out. On the other hand an awful lot of guys who look safe are out.
