Am I the only one who can't hit the high heat?

Re: Am I the only one who can't hit the high heat?

High fastballs are my favorite pitch to hit in this game. They are easy home runs if you know they are coming and you have someone with 80+ power at the plate.

It's easiest to abuse those pitches with the strike zone camera and zone hitting turned on.

Start your cursor high and just let it sit there. Use the normal X button swing and try to pull the ball. If you don't pull it you'll probably get jammed and pop out. Swinging well out in front of the pitch is key.

If your batter doesn't have a lot of power, you can just aim a little higher and try to get your PCI over the top of the ball to hit a good hard line drive that will usually end up being a hit.

i just went out and got myself a gaming monitor. i am back to loving the high heat. huge difference.

I play on all star and I get to that pitch quite often. It has a lot to do with how u hold ur thumb over L3. Try to have it relaxed and not tense. Angle it so u can move it up and in quicker(I change grip a little for right & left handed hitters). If u are relaxed u will still be able to hit all pitches. Look at pitchers release point u will pick up fastball or offspeed much quicker. Changeups still a difficult pitch to recognize jus like real life.

This is genious. The relaxed thumb over the L3 works. Never used this method before. I read this and started a game. Hit my furthest HR I've ever had 468 and have scored 11 runs so far(in the 4th, had to save game)
