Remember the difference between a casual and a quick pickoff as he said. I believe the quick moves are more susceptible to throwaways.

Outstanding information.

Pitching cadence is a true pro tip and we teach that to our young (10 and 11 year olds) pitchers. It is so important to be patternless in baseball for ultimate success in certain aspects such as pick off's and coming home to the plate.

Great post!

I never thought that they had all of this programmed in, pick-offs and cadence especially. I'm going to have to look at the controls when I get home to see the buttons for the casual/quick pick off moves.

L2+Double Tap is the casual move.

L2+Hold is the Deceptive move

L2+Tap is the Quick move

I've using the cadence for a couple years now. I used to play a friend of mine online alot and he would constantly steal on me, so I had to vary my pitch times. I got so used to it that it is something I do without even thinking about it anymore. I didn't know about the throws to first affecting the runner. That is good information.

What they needa do is go back to how stealing was in the past, where you actually had to tap L2 and time your jump. There was actually skill involved. Nowadays, all you need is an 80 and up speed baserunner on 1st and just tap the L2 button and its an automatic steal everytime.

I wasn't aware that changing up your delivery speed actually did something.

Nice tips.
