Just sharing my thoughts of an idea I had after the review from OS that also criticized the lack of control in this part in the game.
Maybe SCEA could implement something like the meter you get above the catcher (button throwing) when someone steals a base.
This could work for both sides.
Pitching: same meter while catching that determines how accurate the pickoff is.
Baserunning: when the pitcher makes a pickoff move the play slows down and a meter appears to determine how fast your reaction is to get back.
Player ratings will still be a factor based on how big the sweatspot is for a good pickoff or the reaction time a baserunner has but gives you more user input as well.
I think something like this could make this part of baseball in The Show so much more exciting!
And ofcourse for the people who might not be interested in this extra game within the game make it optional [emoji846]
What are your thoughts on this part of the game?
