    Please get rid of the unhittable pitch

    High and in fastball everyone knows it cheese and the ump always call it a strike even if it's outside the zone. It ruins the game and don't give me any BS on how you can hit it because everyone knows it cheese/OP and exploits the s*it out of it. All i ask is for that pitch to be hittable and not always make it a pop out/foulout/strikeout because honestly barely any pitchers in the MLB can hit that spot with the consisenty the people online do and it's more often than not is called a ball even if when in the strike zone

      Use zone hitting, place the marker and hit it out of the ballpark. I usually play timing, but when I see someone using that spot too much, I just wait for it the next time.

          Take yor cursor and move it up. If somebody is throwing high heat all of the time, release early and make them pay. If you aim low all the time, then that is your fault; you have to make adjustments just as in real life.

            Up and in IS extremely difficult to hit, especially when it's a 90+ fast ball in the majors or high minors. Being able to throw it at the edge for strikes is impressive but also means it's hittable. I'd look for it early in the game and start to lay off in the middle innings when most starters lose some fine motor control. That and contact swing to protect with two strikes, if you're not already doing that. I can't count how many guys don't protect the zone when they are behind in the count. (Low and away fast ball or change usually finishes them off for me, anyway. Not to mention it's a hard location to take deep.)

              Colby Rasmus has been saying this about sliders thrown anywhere at all for years. He asked the league to ban them because pitchers have been slider spamming him and causing him to strike out at an alarming rate.

                I love the high fastball. It has become so predictable online that you can do some serious damage being ready for it.

                    It's hittable when using zone hitting. Time it well and you'll crush it.

                      High and tight in the strike zone is effective - even in real life. It's a jam pitch unless you have a quick bat and can turn on it. Definitely not cheese, though. If I can't hit those, then yes, my opponent should spam me all day. Weakness exposed.

                      Do you play or have you ever played baseball beyond the console, excluding tee ball?

                          Using directional hitting and my RTTS player with only 34 PWR just hit a high and tight FB that I was looking for over the LF wall.

                            I faced Yordano Ventura last night and knew what was coming but still didn't have much success with these types of pitches. I must be doing something wrong because I feel like only me and the OP have this problem.

                              I think you may be missing the point of some of the posts that say they can hit it.

                              When up to bat, you should not be primarily reactionary at the plate, unless down in the count. Look/wait for a particular pitch and swing on it. If the high inside FB is a pitch you will be looking for (rare - since it's a difficult pitch to hit overall in on your hands), then set up for it, identify it, and try to get the bat around on it.
