    Any suggestions????

    I've been having a hard time hitting the ball tyhis year on Default Veteran. I'm striking out at a pretty bad rate.

    I played on Psychobulk's sliders last year and got good results.

    Any suggestions would help. Thanks!

    I posted some Veteran sliders, you can try those out and see what happens. I do use Guess pitch 1/4 however, which helps out a ton! If you're not using guess pitch I would give the 1/4 a shot and see what happens. No real need to tweak a whole lot with it on.

        I was having trouble hitting, so I turned everything off. Meaning the strike zone, yellow circle thing, guess pitch, etc. This seemed to let me concentrate on the ball more. I use the left stick which some people don't. Turn up "contact" 1 notch in the slider and see what you think. I did this for a few games, and then turned it back to default because I thought it worked to well. (I had one game where I had 17 hits, and still lost!!) I have started to use the power swing more and seem to be getting some good solid contact. However, I still am not very good. Verlander struck me out 9 times last night in 7 innings. Some people turn the pitch speed down alot, but I found that I am always early, so I turned it up 1 notch.
        Hope this helps.
        Also- I switched to Wide batter view and that help alot.

        If a loved one is expecting a baby or just had one, please read about Craniosynostosis. It is a common birth defect that can sometimes be overlooked by doctors.

          Thanks. I too play with everything off, and I'll try upping the pitch speed. I may lower the pitch speed and +1 my timing.

          Idk, I'll let you know if I find something that works.

            I find all of these things a distraction too. I did the same thing last year and my hitting improved without all these "helpful" things.
