Stupid thing to be annoyed about, but I've always been too competitive... Anyway, I just spent the last 15 minutes totally dominating yet continually losing to this guy, all because of the extended animations...
Basically, every shot I hit would first have the batter animations, and then it would either be a "monster" homerun, showing the ball's extended flight time, or a Jumbotron crash, showing smash animation... Basically, he'd have time to hit two pitches in the time it took the various animations for my shots to play out, or for my points bar at the top of the screen to extend. The result was, each match I would CRUSH him with zero strikes, grounders or fouls, and an uninterrupted stream of Monster shots, crashes, cyclings, etc... And he would always win with short homers, grounders, and the occasional strike or foul. Super, super annoying.
I know it's goofy, but it's bad for the blood pressure of competitive folks. They should fix it. Systriff02, you know who you are, lol
EDIT: They should make it so the matchup is for a set number of balls, like a real home run derby...
