Complete Changelog

  • iPhone now has the same view as the iPad on the detail page. Including weather, day/night, and fireworks.

  • Preview link now shows on the game list for each game before first pitch

  • Last play always shows for in progress games on iPad (+some animations)

  • Walks are now properly recognized as the end of an at bat (probably still have bugs with wild pitch reach base or other obscure situations)

  • Preview link text no longer gets truncated

  • Animate batter when switching between L/R hitters

  • Handle “Dome” weather condition

  • Nicer loading spinner for highlights view

I’ll be submitting 1.4 to Apple shortly with another batch of new features (and a few bug fixes for small visual issues that are present in the 1.3 build). Enjoy!
