    When to pull your pitcher?


    Does anyone know when you know when your pitcher is getting tired. I have been looking for a stamina bar of some sort and can't find one. If you guys can help me out and let me know when you're supposed to pull your pitchers it would help out a lot. Thanks!

    Hold Select on the battery (pitcher/catcher) screen between pitches. You'll see their stamina, pitch count and confidence level, among other things.

      Earlier is always better than later in this game.

      If your pitcher is off you will know it quickly. He will miss his spots and the commentators will make references to the effect that this may not be his day.

      As soon as you think to yourself: "I wonder if I should pull him"? PULL HIM because the events that follow will invariably turn out bad for you. Very rarely will you get yourself out of a jam.

      A mound visit can increase pitcher confidence which will in turn help your pitcher get out of a pickle. In this case (IF confidence goes up) you may want to roll the dice and let him try to work his way out of it.

      And just in case you haven't read it yet, here's the thread on "Classic" pitching http://forums.operationsports.com/vB...d.php?t=163315

      It's harder than Meter pitching so you may want to master the meter 1st.
