Where is this camera angle coming from?

I keep seeing this camera angle and I don't know where it is coming from. I've reviewed all of the camera settings over and over and can't find a single one that would provide this view. The biggest issue is that it is usually used on a fly ball to CF. I can almost never actually see the play.

Does anyone else see this one? Any ideas?

That's definitely weird, I've never seen that view in my game. You don't have a view that's directly behind home plate?

I think I found the problem. I was setting up cameras for one stadium and clicking "Copy cameras to all parks" thinking this would also remove cameras that were deleted. I do have cameras behind the plate in other stadiums where I'm seeing this. I will take the time to remove those cameras everywhere and hopefully this goes away.

I wish it was easier to manage these things. So many clicks that have to be repeated over and over.

There should be an option to remove multiple cameras at once, rather than clicking one at a time. Every time I install a new ballpark, I delete every single camera first, and than copy cameras from Cleveland Municipal Stadium, then save the 3D model. Cleveland is my default park that has the camera views that I like. The problem is that copying cameras simply adds to what is already in a ballpark's file.

I see this as a good design decision and a strength of the game. I too have a "default stadium" that I create and export cameras from. After exporting many times one has to fine tune the new camera due to stadium design. What I don't want is those fine tuned cameras overwritten every time I export new cameras. This setting should never be changed.

Having said that more options on how cameras are created or deleted would be welcome. For one I'd love to be able to export only "new" cameras or "all" cameras. Also, as noted already, mass delete would be great along with rename, and the option to re-order the camera list etc. etc. I would think\hope, over time, this gets quality of life additions.
