Too many HR's?

[RLB]

Re: Too many HR's?

After not seeing the issue during Spring Training I think it may have cropped up during the regular season.

Played game against the Cubs where there were 6 homeruns hit. Now it is possible for that to happen obviously but they just felt "off" for lack of better description.

I changed nothing from ST to regular season. I will say that I didn't see any moonshots or anything like that, just the number of homeruns.

Will update

Did you happen to notice what your wind was doing?

It was blowing out to left at 8mph

I thought of that and I know it contributed to one hr as it barely got out.

But like I said the game felt different from others I played

Yes mine did too, line drives that I thought would be routine outs just drifted out of the park. Not really sure how to describe it, but it was definitely different feel. Normal fly balls did the same thing, like the ball had helium in it.

Yep....8 MPH this year is more than enough to turn things upside down when it's blowing out.

Yeah it just felt different. I'm not really sure how to describe it. Like I said I never had this problem/feeling when playing Spring Training games, but this game it felt that the ball had more "life" to it.

Oh no doubt. Like I said I know it contributed to one homerun at least as the ball barely made it over the wall. But the other homeruns would've been homeruns regardless of the wind. The only difference the wind would've made was the distance.

In-air ball physics don't change year to year though. I see people in this thread describe fly balls carrying too far. That's an issue caused by backspin causing exaggerated hang times. That will cause inflated amounts of HRs and distances too. They're related.

If they lower the magnus lift force, things would be more realistic.

Re: Too many HR's?

I can honestly say I have the home run issue in check at this point. Totally satisfied where I'm at on this front.

Now the CPU starting pitcher and bullpen management? That's a whole other story as it stands now.

How do you adjust your hitting slider?

How do you adjust your hitting slider?

The only adjustments I've made are:
Wind is at 2
Solid HIts 4
Pitcher Control 6
Pitcher consistency 6

That said I do only user directional or Analog Swing. I believe Zone hitting the sweet spot is too large, and that is a contributor.

I know, it was just a joke. That article just happened to pop up on my twitter feed and it made me think of this thread.

I wasn't sure if you were serious or not, but I still wanted to say that anyway.

Yep, those two HR's are from Reddit too. It's DD, so no sliders involved.

Re: Too many HR's?

what hitting interface are you guys using that saying there is too many home runs? because I am not hitting a lot of homers and I'm on zone.
